Christian Youths in Niger State Oppose Sermon Approval Policy, Demand Focus on Security

Christian Youths in Niger State are criticizing Governor Bago's approval policy for sermons, calling it religious censorship. The Concerned Christian Youth Forum argues that the policy violates constitutional rights and international agreements on religious freedom.

They highlight Niger State's high poverty rate and suggest the government focus on addressing insecurity and economic growth instead of stifling religious expression. The youth group emphasizes the importance of peaceful coexistence and urges the state government to reconsider the policy to promote unity and development in the region.
