Tinubu Donates ₦‎20 Million As Church Marks 100 Years Anniversary by Edengosar: 11:41am On Oct 28, 2022
The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has donated N20 million to the Catholic church in Benue.!

Tinubu’s donation was presented by Rev. Hyacinth Alia, the APC governorship candidate in the state at the centenary anniversary of the Catholic Diocese of Otukpo.

This is contained in a statement by Isaac Uzaan, Media aide to Alia, on Thursday in Abuja.

At the centenary anniversary held at the Cathedral Church of St. Francis Otukpo, Tinubu rejoiced with the priests, religious, laity, and the entire members of the diocese on the joyous occasion.

He noted that the church had for 100 years remained committed to spreading the good news of salvation in Nigeria, particularly to the people of Benue South.

The APC presidential candidate expressed optimism that with prayers and positive actions, the country would overcome its challenges.

Also, the Minister of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Sen. George Akume donated N10 million to the church.

Akume who is the APC leader in Benue, was represented by the party’s State Chairman, Mr Austin Agada.

He urged the people of Benue to be steadfast in prayers for the state and Nigeria to overcome current challenges.

On his part, Alia expressed concern over the level of poverty the people of Benue have been exposed to.

He said that the state government should fulfil its salary obligations to civil servants and address challenges of insecurity, poor infrastructure and unemployment.

Alia pledged to change the situation if elected governor in 2023, and called on the entire people of Benue South to support him to succeed.

Most Rev. Michael Apochi, the Bishop of Otukpo Diocese, thanked all those who facilitated them, and prayed for Nigeria to be better and stronger.

Apochi said the Otukpo diocese had come this far only through prayers by clergies and laity.

Doesn't bode well throwing huge amounts of money here and there. I'm afraid this might be showing how this man would use half of our yearly budget for charity and buying loyalty, political favour from people, fellow politicians pastors, sheiks, mosques — name it. But that's only IF he wins.

The church in Nigeria has totally lost it. Politicians steal public funds and bring it to the church and they accept with open hands.

Please public funds should be used for public good...that's why the Catholic Church doesn't play partisan politics.

Dear Christians planning to vote for Tinubu ask yourself if Nigerian Christians are second class citizens in Nigeria? Can Nigerian Muslims allow a Christian to succeed a fellow Christian let alone running a Christian- Christian ticket?

The APC adopted the same faith ticket in a country that has never attained nationhood. These warnings were not only ignored but dismissed in one fell swoop by the APC presidential candidate who strangely believes that he can build a strong, secure and viable nation-state without first forging a shared identity, vision and values for our people thereby enabling us transit from citizens of a country into a nation of people with strong shared identity and values. This moves by Tinubu just for the purpose of playing religious card to win Muslim votes up North, if allowed to sail through, can only bring disunity and religious crisis in the country Nigeria.

In their convoluted posturing, APC have placed state-building ahead of nation-building; a task never before achieved in history and we need no seer to tell us that such endeavor is guaranteed to end in spectacular failure. No divided people have ever built any civilization.
To demonstrate that the church is right, it is not alone in condemning the same faith ticket. Other prominent Islamic clerics and Muslim leaders have also spoken in the same light. It is a good omen that both Christian and Muslim elites are not complacent over this matter.

Thank God, Christians across the Nigeria have a very good choice in voting Peter Obi of the Labour Party to power come 2023. Peter Obi/Ahmed Datti ticket is the only choice that can truly restore peace and unify the country.

What is the source of these monies been donated?



Is donating money a short cut to buy conscience or avoid taking part of lingering debates?







Why Always donating money?






The monies been donated will surely finish but the lingering issues you avoid to discus will remain and cause setbacks in the country
