Wukari is a religious town and we have both the Muslim faithful and the Christain faithful. Since the last religious crisis, the leaders came up together in agreement to be their brothers keeper. The image above shows the biggest mosque in Wukari local government. It's really a place to visit.

Biggest Church

Just as we have the biggest mosque, we also have the biggest church in Wukari. Despite all the crisis in Wukari, it has never affected this church because it's always guided by the youths of the church. The image above shows the Christain Reformed Church of God (CRCN) which was built in the late 70's. It is the oldest church in Wukari.
