Presidency Warns CAN Over Religious Intolerance by timtunday: 6:16am On Jan 09, 2020 |
Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday said that the politicisation of religion – as forbidden by the 1999 Constitution (as amended) – has no place in Nigeria. Shehu, who was responding to some recent statements from the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), maintained that the Buhari’s administration will never tolerate religious intolerance, reiterating that administration’s support for the freedom to practice whichever belief any Nigerian wishes. CAN, had on Monday urged the President Buhari-led government to deploy every necessary available resources at its disposal to ensure that all Christians in the captivity of Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists are freed. A statement by President of CAN, Rev Dr Samson Ayokunle, signed by his spokesman, Pastor Adebayo Oladeji, recalled that the Chairman of CAN in Michika, Adamawa State, Rev. Lawan Andimi, was abducted by Boko Haram terrorists last week when they invaded the predominant Christian community. Responding via a statement personally signed by him, the presidential spokesman explained that the security forces of Nigeria are working continuously to return those taken hostage by Boko Haram to their families, friends and communities, adding that in doing this, the government has full confidence in their ability to accomplish the task. According to the statement, “On its own part, government has condemned some of the appalling acts of terror, especially following the festive period. “Yet, to continue to see these happenings solely in religious terms – removed from social, economic and environmental factors – simplifies complexities that must be heeded.

Are you saying the Christian community is the most violent society in Nigeria? Why are we so economical with the truth in this part of the world. Is a curse to live under the same roof as brother? Maybe they need to read this Post From British House of Common https://www.nairaland.com/5621549/british-house-lords-deliberates-nigerian |

I don't want to say CAN is a useless organization, but really it is. Zero achievement since it came into being. All they do is fight for who will chop clean mouth. They should first vomit the 6billion Jonathan bribed them with. Oloshi! 1 Like |

Wow. Chinekemee. What kind of were president is this. Nigeria is under the international spotlight for Islamic terrorism. Can president and Leah sharibu still in bondage. Thousands of Christians killed in the North and Buhari has the audacity to attack CAN. Maybe Buhari needs to be reminded that CAN MEANS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA It means ALL THE CHRISTIANS. We are not almajiri, illiterates or cow herders.e are smart, powerful and serve a MIGHTY MIGHTY GOD. He needs to go and sit down in his hole and thank his stars that done AFONJA Muslim sold out. The rest of Nigeria is not the South West. If he keeps attacking CAN, HE WILL WAKE UP A TIGER THAT WILL DEVOUR HIM. |
Re: Presidency Warns CAN Over Religious Intolerance by CodeTemplar: 9:20am On Jan 10, 2020 |
This is a joke right? You can't call killers to order but feel the verbal reaction of CAN is violating constitution. Hisbah is being empowered to displace federal police in criminal investigation and same presidency is silent. The judiciary is being replaced by a religious one and Garba Shehu is keeping mum about it. Nigeria is done. |
Re: Presidency Warns CAN Over Religious Intolerance by CodeTemplar: 9:24am On Jan 10, 2020 |
JonDon12:Your are going down mentally without realizing it. Your obsession with the idea of promoting a Yoruba division has blinded you from seeing that people have right to vote who they choose and that 2011 and 2015 and 2019 voting pattern in SW was very similar. |
Re: Presidency Warns CAN Over Religious Intolerance by JonDon12: 9:35am On Jan 10, 2020 |
CodeTemplar: You are right about that. The Yorubas sold out en masse. Christian and Muslim. Now regarding 2011, the SW voted for the rational voice. You however decline to speak on the elephant in the room. The radical Islamic bias of Buhari which is self evident. With Templar in your name, I am disappointed. People are dying, in Bondage, mothers are crying. But this Templar is talkin about voting patterns |
