The Christian Association
of Nigeria has reacted to the withdrawal of the Catholic Church in Nigeria to pull out of the association, saying they are free to leave.

Speaking on the Catholics' withdrawal Wednesday,
spokesperson for the 19 Northern chapters of CAN, Sunny Oibe, told journalists in Abuja the Catholics were free to go away,report us says.

He also accused the Christian denomination of arrogance, saying they were merely angry because the presidency of the association had
moved to another bloc of the group.

Their exit will not affect the association in any way, the CAN spokesperson said. Mr. Oibe alleged that Catholics had been sulking since its candidate, John Onaiyekan,lost the presidency of the association to Ayo Oritsejafor.

He said, "There are some certain elements in the leadership of CAN led by Cardinal John Onaiyekan because he lost CAN Presidency to Oritsejafor who has a lot of achievements.

"There is no need for anybody to lose sleep over the threat by Catholics to pull out of CAN because without them CAN will still continue. The constitution of CAN makes provision that membership can be terminated by any group that is misbehaving
or any group can also terminate their
membership.

"Why is it that when Catholics were in the leadership of CAN, every bloc supported them, but now because power has changed hands, they are threatening to pull out and causing confusion?

"They have been agitating that the
Presidency of CAN must come from the South. They are appendage of PDP and PDP themselves. They are known for double standards. A man of God should not be double speaking."

The President, Catholic Bishops' Conference of Nigeria (CBNC), Ignatius Kaigama had written to
CAN President, Ayo Oritsejafor, saying his group was suspending "participation in CAN meetings at the national level until such a time the leadership of CAN reverse back to
the original vision, mission and objectives of CAN" .

Expatiating further on its grouse with the Oritsejafor-led leadership of the association, the bishops lamented that CAN had been politicized
and was no longer being used to promote peace and unity in the country.

"CAN is being dragged into partisan politics thereby compromising the ability to play its true role as conscience of the nation and the
voice of the voiceless," the bishops said.

Hmmm.. There is fire on the mountain!!!
