The Bishops and other clerics whose attendance at the formal unveiling of former Borno State governor, Senator Kashim Shettima, as the running mate to APC’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, sparked controversies and insinuations of sponsored impersonation, have offered proof of their status as ordained clerics and founders of different Christian ministries.

The Christian leaders also clarified that the widespread misunderstanding that they attended the event as representatives of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) was untrue.

Addressing a press conference Monday in Abuja, secretary of the clerics’ umbrella body, the Muslim-Christian Love Foundation, Bishop Adams Abel King, who read their statement on behalf of others, said they never portrayed themselves as emissaries of CAN at the event.

Bishop Abel King also said their identification with Senator Shettima and the APC was informed by his transformation of Borno State, where he handled management of social relations, including the protection of rights for all regardless of religion, while he was the governor of the state.

The group said: “Although Senator Kashim Shettima took the mantle of the state at a difficult time marked by terror attacks and deadly insurgency, his mature, cautious, and decisive management of the state’s affairs helped preserved the social fabric that held several communities together and reassured members of the Christian faith that the government remained committed to their freedoms and wellbeing.”

They also recounted “his (Shettima) rebuilding efforts targeted at the Christian community, including the reconstruction of churches affected by terrorist activities.”


According to the clerics, the contributions and sincere commitment to the constitutional obligation to uphold the rights of all without prejudice or bias qualify Senator Shettima as a brother and an ally in their quest to promote peaceful inter-faith relations in the country.

They dismissed claims of being sponsored to impersonate leaders of the Christian Association of Nigeria at the event.

While justifying their authenticity as church leaders, the group made public their respective churches and ministries, some of which have existed for several years.

They include; the Christian Revival Evangelical Mission Worldwide of Apostle Godwin Livinus; the Divine Prophetic End Time Gospel Faith in Kubwa, Abuja of Bishop Dr. Emeka Theodore; the Light House of all Nation Ministry of Bishop Emmanuel Sunday Jayeola, among others.

Condemning the attacks and harassment they suffered over their participation at the APC event, the group said it was their democratic rights to make a political choice.

They, however, urged a critical evaluation of reports and allegations before their spread and amplification in the press, “particularly on social media where mob antics, driven by ignorance and malice, have strained social ties and caused divisiveness.”

It's a lie.

What about the videos circulating where Shettima announced mockingly that they have 30 bishops that has come to support the declaration. Those bishops were cheering from their positions.

APC are just a bunch of liars. The mocking statement shettima made to ridicule Christianity is what has exposed them now.

According to the the lying CAN, it’s a lie.

Below is the video of the press conference they did. CAN is a lying organization and they should publicly apologize to this Bishop.

CAN should be ashamed of themselves.

—Pic 1: Video of Bishop Emmanuel Jaiyeola speaking today with the rest of the bishop that attended Shettima unveiling. CAN called him a fake bishop.

—Pic 2: A 2021 news extract of Bishop Jayeola listed as part of the middle belt Bishops.


CAN are conglomerates of fools and fake new peddlers calling themselves pastor to deceive their gullible supporters of their hard earned money.


So these guys are fake bishops because they don’t have private jets like other god of men?

Are you a bishop!?
cheesy Everything about APC is disaster...
CAPSLOCKED:
IT'S BAFFLING THAT THESE ONES ARE STILL TRYING TO BE RELEVANT INSTEAD OF BURY THEIR HEADS IN SHAME.
Very shameless lots ..
The bugging question always is what has APC done as a party(I was a party member though slightly active) that gives them the audacious confidence to keep campaigns? In sane climes their campaigns and campaigners will be lynched or attacked by angry citizens anywhere they are seen doing such satanic campaigns.
Get your PVC ready pleeeaaase...
THE LABOUR OF OUR HEROES PAST SHALL NOT BE IN VAIN!....
Pinned emphasis on the word Labour
I'm sure the word is gradually playing a role on the political party called Labour Party

We need vote in all leadership positions young visionary leaders come next year and most importantly vote out both APC & PDP alike come 2023 Presidential Election....let's vote wisely.
egunna:
"in sane clime"......"shud be lynched or attacked".how sane is ur sane Mr. Senator?
The moniker is clear I don't need your unnecessary alias from your toxicity....so to you a country like france isn't a sane society but Nigeria is right ?
Go into history and read about these countries especially France...they literally threw erring leadership personal via government house windows ...kindly stop quoting me unless you have something valid to debunk my mentions else you'll end up showing your toxicity!.
egunna:
sane ppl don't lynch or attack others angrily for expressing their freedom of association.so u are insane if u lynch or attack ppl angrily for supporting others asides ur candidate,don't u think so?
Supporting is fine but trying to convince to be part of a failing political party is gross and a no no......
Go and read what provocation means in the law....the level APC as a party has drowned the Nigerian economy & security...so much that Nigeria is almost like Afghanistan is enough to give rise to lynching.

Na wao, are we breeding tyranny with this Obi supporters, so aggressive. They don't want anyone to have a different view. They think this is their regions where IPOB views are sacred.
This is what happens when religious leaders wants political power. Just like the crusades and Jihads drived humanity to massacres of their fellows.

, “particularly on social media where mob antics, driven by ignorance and malice, have strained social ties and caused divisiveness.”

Some of the social media mob are members of CAN and PFN and those who claimed to be members of the clergy yet used gutter unchristian languages for their colleagues.

Instead of the belligerent and self righteous CAN members to be temperate and carefully find out the truth, they resorted to calling these Bishops criminals like Mr Enenche did.

See how matured these Bishops handled the issue and even showed respect to their accusers.
The attacks on these innocent clergymen must be investigated by independent committee of CAN, ministry of interior affairs and DSS. It is too vicious, well coordinated and borne out of bigotry and hatred, these guys are the real heroes of our democracy and deserves to be protected from these vicious wolves in sheep clothing masquerading as CAN representatives. The conduct of their accusers is completely unacceptable, abominable and they must be sanctioned by CAN and be held to account if these innocent guys get harmed.

They should ensure that their members vote for Asiwaju Tinubu and Senator Shettima to defeat the sponsors of their accusers at the polls.

Senator Shettima is right after all. Shame on the social media mob of bigots and hateful losers of election.
God bless Nigeria for ever
