The spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign, Daniel Bwala has slammed the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, over the ‘the church rat and poisoned holy communion’ comment.

Recall that Tinubu, while fielding questions about climate change at the Arewa Interactive Committee on Monday in Kaduna, described climate change as “a question of how do you prevent a church rat from eating poisoned holy communion”.

“We are a poor nation. They say firewood is not for fetch. They say we need to plant more trees and they are not giving us money.

“We need to tell the West, if you don’t guarantee our finances and work with us to stop this, we are not going to comply with your climate change”, Tinubu said.

But reacting to Tinubu’s claim about climate change, Bwala said his comment was out of context and offensive.

He disclosed this while featuring on the Arise Tv Morning Show.

Bwala said: “He was totally out of context on the church rat comment. It was offensive. It would have been better for him to give a metaphor that resonated with the people .

“But in terms of contextual interpretation…the international conference on climate change is looking at a balance.

“The one point-something emission limit that you are talking about is insofar as it relates to advanced countries.

“So you cannot join that with what Asiwaju said. It’s completely totally out of order”.

Figure of speech, where in the world have you heard poisoned Holy Communion. We should learn to respect people's faith

KGD10:


Church rat idiom is older than you and your ancestors

iwaeda:

You should be able to read, I said poisoned Holy Communion

KGD10:


It's also a figure of speech.

If you said he was forced to eat his poison. No reasonable brain take such literally except he's a Dullard. Sink that into your skull.

Your Atiku couldn't even say anything on climate change. The Olodo

iwaeda:

Se efe gbo Tinubu ti ni dementia

KGD10:


You're describing your father na. Olodo people..

LeoDeKing:
Watch how illiterates following one 3rd class olodo who doesn't even know what green energy is all about, start "explaining" climate change.

Ask them to re explain themselves, they will rather get back with trailer load of insults and curses. Make una no worry, Nigerians will soon tell you clowns election is about choice, not about curses and empty threats.

DaddyFreeze2020:
Tinubu keeps saying terrible blunders and his not too educated supporters become his interpreters, looking for ways of justifying blunder.

No World leader at the UN General Assembly either from the West or Asia will ever think of using such words to explain climate change which does not even correlate.

BAT cannot represent Nigeria at the International community. It will be total disgrace upon disgrace.

Let Tinubu keep his Proverbs/idioms and metaphors to himself and his supporters. Its not needed in the 21st century
