The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has commended the courage and the boldness with which Ekiti State Governor, Chief Ayodele Fayose,openly declared his intention to contest the 2019 presidential election.

The body also advised the governor not to be distracted by people who have nothing good to offer the country.

This was contained in a letter sent to the governor by the Christian body and signed by the National General Secretary, Rev. Dr. Musa Asake.

In the letter dated October 16, 2017 with reference number CAN/GS/IGMAILS/02/017, CAN noted that Fayose’s presidential declaration of September 28, 2017 in Abuja, could only be done by somebody with uncommon boldness and courage giving the harassment and intimidation that would surely follow.

“Unarguably, you have done what many of our politicians, Christians in particular, do not have the courage to do. This is why I agree with you, hook,line and sinker, when in your speech you said inter alia, “You are all witnesses to my commitment to this party in this difficult period, where I have demonstrated uncommon courage that makes me stand out as capable of leading our country at this time.”

“Your Excellency sir, because you are known to doing great in your leadership and that you will move thiscountry forward, the enemies of progress are not happy with your declaration and are not sleeping well. The devil will use many, even those who might be closer to you to try to create lies, false accusation, spread rumours, just to distract people from seeing the good leadership qualities that are in you.

” In times like this, if honest and courageous leaders like you are not careful, this can bring discouragement. Be assured that the Lord who has led you in your leadership as the Executive Governor of Ekiti State at this time, will never letyou down. Your critics have the right to say whatever they want, that is to be expected anyway. No leader should expect applause from his critics,” the association said.

CAN added; “The leader that Nigeria really needs is the one that shuns the cosmetic approach because he knows it is superficial and the ” quick fix it” approach because he knows it is temporary. The country needs a leader who has the courage to face problems honestly, the wisdom to understand them, the strength to do something about them and the faith to trust God to do the rest".


CAN added that the nation’s problems could only be solved by leaders who walk with God and that Fayose had always put his trust in God.


It opined that the assignment of rebuilding the country would not be impossible for Fayose as a leader because God’s grace would be sufficient for him.

What?

Is there still CAN in Nigeria? Same CAN people that formed a circle,and put corruption(Jonathan) in their middle and showered him with prayers and blessings to win the Presidency?

Same CAN President Orisetjafor or what ever his name is, that got his private jet impounded in South Africa for buying weapons for Militants?now they are endorsing Fayose?

CAN is dragging the Christian name into the gutters.

what did I just see

Fayose for President. what a joke. well, after Buhari and his afonja sidekick have destroyed the sanctity of Aso rock, any donkey can follow in their footsteps.

FAYOSE IS THE MAN. THE MAN OF THE STREET. THE MAN WHO FEELS THE PAIN OF THE COMMON MAN OUT THERE. A TERROR TO BUHARI.

Fayose is the only hope for Christians in this country. Buhari has made Osibanjo his full time Imam/prayer warrior.

I thought CAN is a responsible body

CAN endorsed Fayose for president?
I thought CAN is a religious body.
Seems the money meant for Ekiti workers salaries have secretly exchange hands behind the scene!

Guess that is a right decision because Osinbajo that ordinary could have been a better option have been enmeshed in the dirty politics of the APC and beside became a domicile donkey of the hausa-fulani cliche.

Why you Hausas allowed to rant and vent in Christian matters but we can't say na da when it concern you?
Seun is that democracy?

CAN = Corruption Association Nigeria

religion mixing with politics What!

PAPA ADEBOYE WONT LIKE THIS BECAUSE HE VISITED BABA IN THE HOSPITAL.

fayose is the best choice for Christians. ..afo..nj.
a Muslims can decide to vote in their slavemasters just to maintain their slavemaster relationship

This god of men won't tell the lunatic to pay Ekiti state workers salary now

Can means agolo in Yoruba!
Agolo people .
Agolo is synonymous with panti.
Panti means rubbish in English.
CAN therefore is canned rubbish.

CAN is now a political party







Igbos right now

Hahahahahaha.
CAN is only full of fools, I tot CAN under ayo leadership was the worst, not knowing the worst leadership is yet to come.

He would be behind bars before 2019.

Magu is wating patiently for him

C. A. N. NOW CRAZY!

Anybody that hates Fayose is an enemy to our National Unity, Corruption apologist and restructuring haters.
#Fayose2019 let the healing starts. Only you can heal the Land.

Fayose, I know you can't hear me, but if you happened to, please choose an Hausa as your VP. They are marginalized in their own land without them knowing. They need HELP.

Okay

lol, the funniest thing about all this CAN is that they tell their members not to join politics, yet they bring the politicians into the church to take special seat on the altar or front row.
something is wrong with their head

Is it a crime for a religious body to endorse a candidate and given the killings of Christians by Fulani herdsmen and BH do expect them to endorse terrorist's grand patron.

And If you truly wants to know the real meaning of corruption look no further cos Buboo himself is the gaga shuffle of corruption.

The dude runs a scandalous government criminal enterprise never seen in our political history whilst he hides under the toga of Mr integrity and uses cat paws to do his fraudulent bidding as the head of the cabal.

But unfortunately simpletons, closet terrorists and zombies are too brainwashed to see unclad truth right before their eyes.

bro get your facts right before saying trash,orisetjafor is not president and not like buhari does not pay homage to sokoto. It is a known fact that nigerian vote according to religious affiliations (except in the sw). So who do you want them to endorse before, buhari? that has failed in all ways?

I am a Christian but I do not associate with CAN, and they have never spoken for me.

Cannabis Association of Nigeria (CAN) under the leadership of FFK.

We so endorse.

Ignore that thing...

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) recently endorsed the candidacy of Ayodele Fayose for the exalted office of the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. In all honesty, Ayodele Fayose has the right to contest as a citizen of Nigeria and CAN also has the right to endorse whoever they want to endorse. But I wish to remind CAN to keep quiet and not shout islamization when a Muslim body endorses a Muslim candidate. CAN has become a reckless association without direction especially since GEJ era. They should be called to order.

When did politics become Christian matter? CAN is a political group so as fayose is a politician
