Luanda – The secretary general of the Council of Christian Churches in Angola (CICA), reverend Luis Nguimbi, on Saturday in Luanda urged churches to hold awareness campaigns on the increasing cases of sexual abuse.

Speaking to Angop on church's role in the pacification of minds in face of the increasing rate of child sexual abuse in Angola, the reverend stated that while the psychologists and sociologists study the society and man in particular, the church also has the mission to take problems of the country to God.

He considered as important for people to analyse the problem of sexual violence in a spiritual point of view, stating that while the law punishes, the church has the duty to educate people against evils.
