“Dear God, on my Birthday and Beyond, let me walk in the security that comes from knowing who You say I am: treasured, delightful, known, and protected. Bless me today and in the coming year, amen.
“Oh God Almighty, unite and restore peace in our nation.”Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN was established to serve the political interest of all professing Christians in Nigeria, love CAN or hate CAN, it’s your first political constituency before your political party. We have seen actions of individual members that are damaging the image of the body. Is anything wrong
Daniel As A Peacemaker
See Commendation on Daniel Below By Someone who has known him for long.
It was on ‘Dara Discourse’ Platform that I met very many eminent personalities. I was attracted to Daniel Kadzai who was the then National President, Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria, (YOWICAN). I invited him to our 2nd Intercession for the nation hosted by Pastor Olaitan Aromolaran of Joy Cometh Ministries in Ikorodu, Lagos State: and he honoured the invitation!
He is one man I have come to love his striving for peace in the body of Christ and even among other religious groups. One of the firsts among the few who called me to let go of Femi Fani Kayode when I debut with, “FFK: the spy who fooled us all”. The series ended in part 3. The rest are unpublished!
He was ever proactive, how I wish we have one like him manning YOWICAN at this moment when the allegiance due to God is completely been misinterpreted in the desperation of the youth to make a change. “If you are willing and OBEDIENT you will eat the good of the land”! Is the slogan of the youths and anyone out of their movement is disobedient. The question is obedient to or disobedient to who? This narrative is the confrontation of YOWICAN at this material time, but I can’t find them.
If the name Daniel is synonymous with den, this Daniel has seen and fought some beasts in the den of church politics! His late father David K Kadzai, a Pastor and celebrated teacher must have prayed before naming his first son Daniel.
His political experiences in CAN must have made out of him a peacemaker, after the battle that exited the then active outstanding National President of YOWICAN! Whatever the details of his issues with CAN? Daniel was just a call away, that is one thing missing.
He became the Chairman, Congress of Northern Nigeria Christians – CNNC (He won the CNNC office in absentia with 153 votes, while the other person present got 3 votes). As an Ambassador of God’s Peace, he put together a conflict resolution project which my company ‘Masterbuilder Communications’ consulted for. We successfully appealed to Jukun and Tiv to cease fire at Inter Ethnic Peace Summit, July 2019!
At the event, 86 Ethnic group leaders were present. Facilitators included Solomon Arase, former Inspector General of Police, Late Dr. Obadiah Mailafia, former Deputy Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria CBN. The event had Ambassador Stephen Bangoji who, as the Vice President of CNNC represented Prof. Adamu Baikie the 1st Professor of Education from Northern Nigeria, then President, CNNC, Gen. Sylvester Audu, former Commander 14 Infantry Brigade, Ohafia, AVM Andy Giwa Tsakr, Hon. Sarah Ochekpe, former Minister of Water Resources, His Excellency David Sabo Kente. The conference has paid off today as there is peace between Tiv and Jukun at the border of Benue and Taraba!
When Tangale in Birili local government of Gombe State erupted in dispute over candidate to it royal throne. My pen was lifted for war like a gun aiming at a target, Daniels hand came upon the “butt” of my pen and held the nozzle of the fountain of ink through his call and saved it from firing. Southern Christian may never be able to know the fate of Northern Christian except they have the opportunity to live here was his conclusion.
