"If the world continues to do nothing, the result will be the elimination of the Christian presence. They have settled within our country little by little, attacking the army, civil structures and the population. Now, their main target seems to be Christians. I believe they are trying to trigger an inter-religious conflict. Insecurity continues to increase and has forced us to reduce our pastoral activities."
Laurent Birfuoré Dabiré"Whether one is a Muslim, Christian, Catholic, Protestant or of a traditional African belief, terrorism has spared no one and causes everyone to lose their livelihoods, their home, activities, life and freedom for those who have been taken hostage."
