The Vice President assured that the government would “dig deep into the root cause of the crises to find lasting solutions to it.”
He also dismissed the religious colorations attached to the killings, saying ” persecutions have always been with Christians and it is the duty of Christians to stop it”.
“The gospel of Jesus can not be killed by anybody; it is not fragile or written on a piece of paper,” he explained.
