The Middle Belt Forum, MBF, has said the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress, APC, is a danger to the collective wellbeing and unity of country assuring that its is an evil plot that Nigerians will defeat in 2023.

The National President of MBF, Dr. Bitrus Pogu who made the assertion in Makurdi while reacting to the choice of Alhaji Ibrahim Shettima as the running mate of Senator Bola Tinubu, the APC presidential candidate in the 2023 presidential election also described the choice as an unfortunate development.

Dr Pogu noted that the choice was indicative of the ignorance and insensitivity of the APC to the mood and pains of Nigerians at this point in time.

Hear him: “It is an unfortunate development, unfortunate in the sense that we are living in a terrible period where the country is being tormented by insurgents from all over the place starting from Borno with Boko Haram and Shettima is from there.

“And if such is coming now without consideration to the plurality of this country with regards to region, religion and other issues, I think it is an unfortunate development.
And for the presidential candidate of the APC to bow to such a pressure is an unfortunate development. One would wish that they would look at what would be beneficial to Nigeria at this time.

“Nigerians have not recovered from the insurgency coming from mainly Islamic origin, it shows that the APC is insensitive to the plight of Nigeria and Nigerians. And it’s not ready to bring healing, reconciliation and rescue Nigeria from the problems it is facing.

Now it is also an unfortunate development because this time is not the same with the MKO Abiola time, which was several years ago. These are times that religion should be handled with care.

“We believe that Nigerians, both Moslems and Christians would rise up and defeat this evil because if it does succeed then I doubt if Nigeria will get out of it.”

According to him, “there are so many suspicious things going on which points accusing fingers to this government, of being complicit or at least being lenient towards the insurgency which is predominantly of Islamic origin. And for this same political party to now foist a Muslim-Muslim ticket, I thinks it’s an unfortunate development. But I believe that Nigerians will defeat it, and we’ll get out of it.

“The ticket poses a danger to the collective wellbeing and unity of the country. At a time when we have insurgents of different forms, Boko Haram, herdsmen militia, ISWAP and others of Islamic religion all from the North and then to say you are foisting on Nigeria a Muslim-Muslim ticket, it is the most unpatriotic presentation at a time like this.

“It means APC has no sense of plurality and unity in Nigeria. Of course if you look at appointments of the government in place, you will see that nepotism and religious leanings have been the case. And it will be unfortunate that the APC would go farther in this direction.

“Some are saying it doesn’t matter. That is not correct, at this time it does matter. And anybody who says it doesn’t matter is an enemy of the country, he doesn’t love Nigeria and doesn’t want Nigeria to succeed.”

Oh yes Nigeria Top to bottom

As if na him be the only available party..


Make Una vite your conscience and leave the headaches for APC and Tinubu na

Only Obi-Ipob terrorists are crying over this.
They will never vote APC any other way.

wahala for Tinubu ooo. Even after waiting for ages, he will still not escape the backlash of Muslim-Muslim ticket. APC actually messed up by presenting Tinubu in the first place, Osibanjo would have been their best bet.

I'm happy because muslims are heartless so wickedness to all Nigerians is guaranteed

Does the Constitution forbid this? If not then why are we bothering ourselves..

You see..

There must be an inter -religious- relations blw people of Nigeria as it is done amongst the Yoruba people.>.


What Matter most is that power must come to South,,

Cos it would be unfortune for us if North continues to rule ..

I pity Tinubu


I pity Tinubu


I just pity Tinubu

middlebelt na Obi terrorists, ? U want muslim-muslim ticket so that BOOOOOOOOOOM will be legalized

By chosing to run a Muslim-Muslim ticket in a country like Nigeria and at a time such as now, the one clear message the APC is sending to the Christian Community in Nigeria is; DO YOUR WORST! YOU DON'T COUNT!

Beyond this insult, the most imb£cilic set of idjiots are the people who, in a bid to protect their own intestinal interest, argue that a Muslim-Muslim ticket in a highly volatile multi-religious Nigeria, , doesn't matter as long as they are competent (As if there are no competent Christians in the North). If it doesn't matter, why did some people give that as a condition for supporting Tinubu who himself is a Muslim? This is the fuulish justification we were given when Buhari was filling all sensitive positions with only people from a particular region and religion. Today, how far?

And because for some of our Daddy G.O and Men of God, the bl00d of money appears ticker than the bl00d of Christ, this insult might be left unresponded to. Some of them may even find a way to justify this even if it means standing the Bible on its head like Pastor Poju did when he turned the definition of faith upside down in a desperate bid to disguise his support for Tinubu. Pa Adeboye will deliberately play the 'see no evil and hear no evil' card. Bakare will most definitely find a way to defend this as a way of paying back his debt to Tinubu. No surprise in his own case.

But I trust the irrepressible Bishops David Oyedepo and David Ibiyeomie. Those two have never been found wanting when it comes to defending the interests of their flock.

As for CAN, I want to believe they are preparing a ROBUST counter measure beyond mere rhetorics.

Na Obi terrorists go write this, don't be naive.

Its a blessing for the Obidient.

APC is the party in power setting a bad precedence in all ramifications. Everyone should be worried, including you, because what goes around comes around.

reduce ur too much Garri intake e dey block brain

fuckingAyaya:

Obimination

Anybody supporting this combination is evil.
It's a terrible, wicked and divisive combination.
He want power by all means.
Where is equity and fairness to Northern Christians and Nigeria Christians community in general.

Tinubu's desperation to become president at all cost has blinded him to all sense of reason.

A muslim-muslim ticket in present day Nigeria confirms the evil APC represents as a party.

I believe he's banking on the power of incumbency of the party to rig election and foist himself on Nigerians.

People who were never going to vote for APC are the most pressed about the religious bent of APC's ticket.

Another PDP group has spoken.


Vote Tinubu 2023. Vote APC.

Only urchins will vote for the agbado ancestor

SmartPolician:

APC is the party in power setting a bad presidence in all ramifications

Then don't vote them na

The APC don't have any regard for the ethno-religious sensitivity of this nation despite all the atrocities they have wrecked under Buhari.

VeryWickedMan:
I'm happy because muslims are heartless so wickedness to all Nigerians is guaranteed

I am a Muslim, but I don't think I am as heartless as you

Racoon:
The APC don't have any regard for the ethno-religious sensitivity of this nation despite all the atrocities they have wrecked on this entity under Buhari.

We force you to vote for us? Go and vote for your choice candidate nah. You will vote, we will count the votes and announce results, anyone that is not happy with the results that we will announce should go to Court. Supreme Court is headed by our boy. Se Finih

sosanova:
Tinubu has already lost the election before election day
The current killing of Christians and attack on churches by Boko Haram, Bandits and ISWAP will become child's play when we now have Muslim President and Muslim Vice President.
Any christian that goes out to support or campaign or vote for Muslim Muslim ticket is forever doomed and the blood of innocent christians that have been gruesomely murdered and massacred by this blood thirsty Jihadist terrorists will forever hunt any Christian who supports, votes or campaigns for this devilish Muslim Muslim ticket

You can cry blood if you like.

Northerners have picked their representative.

The North has rejected a Christian from representing them, Tinubu has little input in that. Just as Tinubu nominated Buhari's deputy Judas Osinbajo to represent the South without the input of the Northern politicians, so has the North nominated deputies for Tinubu to pick from. It's a loss for Northern Christians, not for Yorubas

I think we need to publish this write-up in all the national newspapers. More grace to your elbow

Simply because what we consider to be heartless is nothing to you. Swear say you neva kill anybody for your life.

This is the highest level of ungovernable in Nigeria.

Tinubu has lost this election. Not like he stood any chance initially, but right now, it's practically impossible for Tinubu to win the election.



Very greedy thing!

Well said. Perhaps this election is going to be the final straw that will break this nation in pieces.These people are so heartless.
