The General Overseer of the Champions Royal Assembly, Prophet Joshua Iginla has condemned the Muslim-Muslim ticket fielded by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Prophet Iginla Warns Tinubu
KanyiDaily recalls that APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu had picked his fellow Muslim, Kashim Shettima, a former Borno State Governor, as his running mate for the 2023 presidential election.
Addressing his church members in Abuja, Prophet Iginla described Tinubu’s decision as insensitive, stressing that the APC Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket is a “sign of war”
He said: “I asked myself, in a country like Nigeria with too much strong religious beliefs, why will the ruling party go for a Muslim-Muslim ticket? Why will their presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, go with that view?
“I asked myself again if we don’t know, we are sounding the drum of war in a place where there is unity, peace, and understanding despite our differences. Nigeria is a country for all and does not belong to a particular set of religion. It has never happened before in this country. Why now?
“If we must make Nigeria great, we must allow equity, justice and sensitivity to be the watch of the day for our leaders. I am pleading in my heart; this was not the Nigeria I was born to.
“This was not the Nigeria that our great heroes fought for. What is going on? Our leaders, please save us because the Muslim-Muslim ticket is a sign of war”.
KanyiDaily recalls that the General Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, William Kumuyi also said Bola Tinubu took a slippery road in picking Kashim Shettima as his running mate.
