Prayers for Nigeria
It is with considerable distress and dismay that the international leadership of The Salvation Army has heard of a fatal accident in Nigeria.
Unconfirmed reports from the territory suggest that up to 11 officers and one child were involved in a fatal vehicular accident. Further passengers were injured and are receiving treatment.
General-elect, Commissioner Lyndon Buckingham said, ‘This is heartbreaking news. The officers and their driver were returning from officers’ councils held in Lagos at the time of the accident. We ask that the global Salvation Army comes together to offer prayers of love and support, remembering all those who have been promoted to Glory, the bereaved and those injured receiving medical care. We hold them in our hearts and in our prayers.’
