The speaker of the 8th Assembly Rt Hon. Yakubu Dogara has said that those who support the All-Progressives Congress (APC), vice president, to be Muslim-Muslim tickets are working against the Unity of Nigeria.
Dogara said this when the group of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) held their 12th general Assembly and Leadership Transition Ceremony said the position of the Association is Godly and anything outside that is not Godly
The former speaker added that “Anybody can say anything, but in as much as what we are standing for is Godly, any other position is ungodly, there is no middle way, you can’t be in the middle, it is either you are for righteousness, justice, inclusivity or you are working against the unity of this great country,” he added.
“I want to say emphatically that CAN’s position on Muslim/Muslim ticket in this country, at this moment of national peril, is not CAN’s only position, I believe that is God’s position.
He further said that they serve the God of justice, our God is righteous, our God is the author of diversity, and he wants as diverse as we are to come together.
“So, CAN’s position as much as it is a righteous position, it is the position of all of us who live righteousness, justice, diversity and are working to harness it for the advancement of this country,” he said.
