Anglican Bishop of Enugu Diocese, Rt. Rev. Prof. Samuel Obiajulu Ike, urges Nigeria’s Federal Government to end its reintegration of “repentant terrorists.” Speaking in his presidential address at the third session of the 19th Synod of the Enugu Ecclesiastical Province and Enugu Diocese, the bishop argues that people involved in terrorism should not be returned to society through reintegration programmes. Instead, he calls for the prosecution of those responsible for terrorism-related acts. Both reports state that Bishop Ike frames reintegration as a harmful policy, while emphasizing accountability through legal action. The bishop’s appeal is directed to President Bola Tinubu and is presented as part of his broader address during the synod meeting at St. Peter’s Anglican Church. The two outlets agree on the core message, location of the address, the identity of the bishop, and the specific policy change he is requesting.
