Emir of Rano Bans Church Activities in Residential Homes
The Emir of Rano, Ambassador Muhammad Isa Umaru, has imposed a strict ban on church activities within residential buildings in the Emirate. This decision follows numerous petitions from concerned residents, prompting the Emir to establish a special investigative committee.
Key Points:
- Investigation Findings: The committee discovered that a church in Yadi Quarters was conducting services in a residential house without proper legal authorization.
- Current Church Presence: Rano Emirate is home to 27 registered churches where Christians worship freely. However, unauthorized worship in homes led to complaints from locals.
- Immediate Action: Based on the committee’s report, the Emir ordered an immediate halt to all church activities in residential areas to maintain public order.
- Community Concerns: The committee’s secretary, Alhaji Umar Isa Sarki, noted that multiple petitions raised issues regarding the legality of these home-based services.
Efforts to reach the Kano chapter chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for a response were unsuccessful at the time of reporting.
