Pastors On Evangelical Mission Should Stop Travelling In Vehicles With Church/Mosque Names And Symbols -Shehu Sani

Senator Shehu Sani has given advice to Nigerian men of God on how to stop kidnappers.

Senator Shehu Sani believes that, given the recent increase in kidnappings of people on pastoral or evangelical missions along Nigerian highways, it is not advisable to drive or move about in vehicles bearing the inscription of their churches, mosques, or other religious institutions.

Because of the increase in cases of kidnappers targeting church members traveling on roads to their different areas of evangelism, Senator Shehu Sani gave this advice to evangelists and men of God who participate in evangelism.

Senator Shehu Sani believes that it is best if travelers avoid riding in vehicles bearing the logos of their various religious groups as much as possible.

Senator Shehu Sani pointed out that icons and logos like these draw unwanted attention from kidnappers. Kidnappers target these evangelists because they believe their different religious institutions would be able to pay a ransom for the kidnapped persons’ release.

Senator Shehu Sani’s argument is based on the assumption that if kidnappers don’t see religious logos and icons on the vehicles used by church staff on pastoral missions, it would be difficult for them to be recognized as possible targets.

Senator Shehu Sani’s advice would go a long way toward minimizing situations where kidnappers abduct missionaries, evangelists, and other religious workers who are on evangelical missions.
