Bishop condemns sorcery-related killings in Bougainville

The Catholic Bishop of Bougainville Diocese, His Lordship Biship Bernard Unabali has condemned all sorcery related killings that are happening on Bougainville, Dawn FM reports.

Bishop Bernard said that this year is the year of Mercy for the church and he wants to see the people of Bougainville use this opportunity to reconcile and forgive their enemies as Bougainville is heading towards Referendum.

He said that from all the sorcery related killings that have happened not one group has reconciled with each other.

Bishop UNABALI said that if this trend continues then the outcome of the Referendum is not looking good.

The Bishop made these remarks at the ordination of FR. DYLAN HATOBU at the Hahela Catholic Parish Wednesday morning.

He said that the people must try their best to reconcile and prepare well for the up-coming Referendum earmarked for 2019.
