A civil society group, Faith and Freedom Africa (FFA), has emphasized the need for respect and protection of every citizen's right to freedom of religion in Nigeria.
FFA Country Coordinator, Felix Samari, stressed the importance of recognizing and upholding the rights of all citizens, regardless of faith, during a one-day colloquium in Jalingo, Taraba State.
Speaking during the weekend, Samari explained that the FFA Town Hall Meeting is part of ongoing efforts to promote peace, religious tolerance, and constitutional awareness across Nigerian communities.
The event, themed "Freedom of Religious Beliefs" (FoRB), brought together religious leaders, activists, and community members to discuss tolerance and inclusion. Citing Section 38 of the Nigeria Constitution, Samari highlighted the importance of promoting religious freedom.
