UFUK calls for religious harmony in Nigeria, honours Dogara, Geidam, others-2

In his opening remark during the
awarding ceremony held in
Abuja, the president of UFUK
Dialogue, Mr. Kamil Kemanci,
said dialogue and peaceful
coexistence has always been and remains a need, a necessity,
and a must for Nigeria to have a
healthy and more productive
society. "With dialogue, it is possible
to transform conflict into co-
operation. This interfaith
dialogue seeks to realize
religion's basic oneness and
unity, and the universality of belief Islam and Christianity
all come from the same root,
have almost the same
essentials, and are nourished
from the same source," he noted Mr. Kemanci further reiterated
that "for everyone to live peacefully, it is important for
individuals to rise above
differences that drive us
apart and that go beyond any
ideology or political system,
and above any religious movement or religious
authority."Source:Naijang
