The Ecumenical Youth Association (EYA) has faulted the suggestion allegedly made by the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu for a Muslim-Muslim ticket in the 2023 presidential election.



The organisation said for Tinubu to have taken such a position, he is greedy and does not deserve the Presidency.


Tinubu in London
Tinubu had at a recent meeting with some Northern elders in Abuja arranged by his longtime friend, Senator Abu Ibrahim, reportedly said they should leave the task of convincing Yoruba people to him if selected by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as the candidate of the party in the 2023 elections.


It was said that his position was that the South-West region would not be against the choice of a Muslim as his running mate.


During the meeting, the group noted that the issue of who would be his running mate became a contention as the elders told him they would not accept a Christian Northerner to be his running mate.


It added that Tinubu promised to pick a North-West politician, who would be a Muslim.


A prominent politician and former governor was said to have asked him how that would be taken in the South, and Tinubu told his guests that the South-East and South-South, who were largely Christians, would not matter, adding that it was the South-West that could raise issues, but he would handle it.


But the President of EYA, Daboikiabo Warmate said that with such a statement, Tinubu had demonstrated insensitivity and political greed.


He said, "We vehemently condemn the insensitive and greedy statement of a Muslim-Muslim Presidential/Vice Presidential Ticket credited to a former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.


"It's so provocative and unfortunate that Alhaji Tinubu will insult the sensibility of Yoruba Christians in the same way those Northern political elites insulted Northern Christians.


"This is not just inciting and insulting to Northern and Yoruba Christians alone but also to all Christians in Nigeria.


"This has confirmed that Tinubu is very undeserving of the Nigerian Presidency. A man whose ambition is worth subjugating the over 100 million Christians in Nigeria can even one day mortgage Nigeria.


"We are presently talking (about) how Christians have become endangered species, how much more under such a person's Presidency then, we Christians will all be eliminated.


"We are compelled to believe all that is being said about him most especially, by his kinsmen. We will start a campaign soon tagged: 'Tinubu Presidency, a danger to existence of Christians in Nigeria,' because his statement has proven that.


"We want to use this opportunity to encourage and call on all Christian politicians that have the requisite capacity to save our dear country from the verge of collapse, to come out and contest in the 2023 Presidential election in both major political parties and we will mobilise and campaign for such a person because it is our turn."

Taking your fellow southerners for granted all in a bid to please your masters...

Time shall tell

If Awolowo that was loved by entire Yorubas could not get it, who is Tinubu that is only loved by YMM to have it ? ..

Tinubu has insulated the entire Nigerian Christians with this interview..

Come and collect the Presidency nah

Thiefibu will not even stand at the election! mark my words

Gibberish from Saharareporter


Tinubu will choose a Christian from the North as his running mate

We need a third hierarchy in the presidential office to be occupied by a traditionalist. An active one who can deal with the likes of tinubu through the air and there'll be no evidence for police to hold on to.

Since he thinks Christians are inconsequential he will not get there

He is entitled to his own opinion. After all he will not even win the APC's primaries.

Tinubu doesn't care to climb one million dead bodies just to get to aso rock.

Frigga is not Asgard

It will be easier for a needle to pass through the eyes of a horse than for Tinubu to become a president in Nigeria, he stand a better chance in Somalia than in Nigeria.

I don't know this man problem.Despite his age and healthy issue, he is still deliberate to rule naija by force.

Buhari is a soldier and very strong man from majority tribe. But Tinubu want to come and take the punishment that is meant for his cowboss

Yes...and run on the platform of ACN to rule over his lackeys only.

This is what insatiable desire for power can cause.

Ok

You are just one person with one vote, the entire south east is just a bit and fragment of the large chunk of voters that is insignificant, stop being emotionally important, even your region doesn't matter.

I no get time for senseless talk

Swerve

In 2024 general election Bola Tinubu will meet his political waterloo. He think he can replicate what Abiola achieve in 1993, he should be rest assure that whatever has a beginning must surely have an end.

Bring out your own candidate and contest against the Jagaban Borgu. If not, you will cry blood when Tinubu get an easy ride to the Presidency.

We are still not look beyond religious aspect this is what killing Nigeria.
