http://dailypost.ng/2015/08/22/m-not-protecting-jonathan-from-buharis-probe-bishop-kukah/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitterhttp://dailypost.ng/2015/08/22/m-not-protecting-jonathan-from-buharis-probe-bishop-kukah/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Most Rev Hassan Kukah, has faulted interpretations given his comment on the Federal Government’s anti-corruption war in the media, declaring that he was not trying to protect former President, Goodluck Jonathan against probe by the present administration. The Bishop, who spoke to LEADERSHIP Weekend, said he had never, in any of his latent and manifest utterances, gone against probing Jonathan. According to him, he only offered a very realistic advice to President Muhammadu Buhari, advising that he should not be carried away by probes, as the business of governance must go on. Speaking through the secretary of Sokoto Diocese, Rev. Father Sixtus Onuh, Kukah insisted that his simple standpoint remained that the probes should not be selective; rather it should cut across all former leaders and public servants. Father Onuh argued that Kukah remained a very patriotic Nigerian, who has served the country in diverse assignments without demanding any material reward, and maintained that the bishop spent even personal resources for missionary work. Onuh insisted that it is unfortunate, the extent mischief-makers can go in trying to blackmail the respected cleric by snapping Bishop Kukah’s building and uploading same on Facebook, alleging that it was built with money given to the Peace Committee by former President, Jonathan. “All he is saying is that governance can go on while President Buhari can carry on with his probes, but he was not just elected to only come and probe. All he said was that Nigerians are eager, Nigerians are anxious to see things taking shape. “He made this comment on Channels TV. He made the comment in Sahara Reporters as well. He said that it was Nigerian attitude. All this noise about probe, probe, probe, he said that you can go ahead with the probe but don’t forget the governance. “All he is saying is simple: if you really want to probe now that ordinary Nigerians are calling for probe, then the probe should be extended to former leaders – Yar’Adua, Obasanjo, IBB and all others before them so that Nigerians will know that Buhari has done a great job rather than carry out selective probe. “Bishop Kukah has served this country in diverse capacities. He served under Obasanjo, served under Yar’Adua, under Jonathan and even under Buhari. All I want Nigerians to note is that Bishop Kukah has served the Nigerian government, whether in the Political Reform Conference, Oputa Panel or whichever national assignment – to mention few – which he has found himself without receiving any gratification, because he had said it earlier that, that was his own contribution to the nation. But he has never taken anything from the government. All he tells them is, ‘one naira, don’t give me, all you do is arrange my travel and accommodation’. Period. “Whatever people are saying about him, whether he was given bribe to defend Jonathan or not, I tell you with every sense of honour that if I should explain how much the Bishop spent on daily or monthly basis supporting us (Sokoto Diocese) since he became bishop of the diocese, you will appreciate God for him because I have the record as the secretary. “It is people, friends – both local and foreign – that are supporting him to develop God’s work.” Father Onuh also added that the bishop was simply being sincere in addressing issues. “Bishop Kukah does not join issues with anybody. If you like, insult him; he will simply say God should forgive you,” he noted. 1 Like |

The issue was trashed in Kobanji Direct last night on Radio Continental. The same Kukah that spoke against corruption in 2013 is now defending it. |

Medicine after death. Who care how much he has spent on missions which is the command and work of Gid. What we are saying is that the Bishop should focus on his callings and forget about the so called peace commitee since we are not fighting war. By the way this so called committee are machineries used to control governance on the country in the past and must be put away! !!! ![]() |
