CAN President, Daniel Okoh, Distances Self From APC Presidential Campaign List by iwaeda(op): 7:18pm On Oct 20, 2022
PRESIDENT, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, has distanced himself from the revised list of members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and presidential campaign council wherein names of some officials of the organisation were featured.

In a statement on Thursday night, he said the umbrella Christian body will investigate the matter after which fair, but decisive and appropriate action will be taken.

The statement read, “My attention as President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has been drawn to the revised list of members of the Tinubu/Shettima 2023 President Campaign Council wherein the names of some outgoing officials of the body were featured.

Such a development is worrisome because it counters the well-known stance of CAN on partisanship.

I want to categorically exonerate my humble self from this development and any of such that may occur in the future.

“I want to use this medium to assure all Christians in Nigeria and the general public that since I received the news, I have commenced full investigation into how the officials got involved into overt partisanship.

“At the end of the probe, CAN will take a fair, but decisive and appropriate action with a view to defending the ideals of the umbrella Christian body I lead by the grace of the Almighty God.

“On a final note, I urge the general public to be calm while we collectively work to entrench a culture of inclusion and respect for our religious diversities in our political leadership.”

What level of desperation is this?

Tinubu na by force?
Since you think no Nigerian Christian is good enough to be your vice why not leave us alone?

Posterity will judge anyone that votes for a Muslim muslim ticket.

This is a case like the rented bullion van fake bishops...

The insults from APCshit on Christians and the dangerous Holy Communion sacrilege gaffe from Thief'nubu should be condemned, never again to be tolerated...

How dare APCshit involve the body of CAN to support a Muslim muslim MU-MU Ticket...

The insults on the Christians are enough already...

Like what da hell... this a kind of religious persecution against Nigerian Christians... it will surely fail....

Tinubu the desperado wants to use agbado and Ewa strategy to corner Christians into his devilish political agenda.

He keeps getting rejected and he will fail woefully in 2023.

Tinubu is the opposite of omoluabi.
No manifesto
No idea about leadership by influence
All the greedy looter cares for is everyone should step down for the Drug Baron. EMI LO KAN

Must Tinubu and APC rope in christians in their satanic ticket? Since Christians are not significant for the success of your election, why did you suddenly change and start forcing them to campaign for you?
Lalong, fake bishops, fake northern CAN are just joking
Re: CAN President, Daniel Okoh, Distances Self From APC Presidential Campaign List by Dyke15(m):
This guys never seem to learn from their past mistakes.
Their principal is even busy focusing on the North alone thinking those guys will leave their son and vote him instead undecided
Why not spread ur tentacles ND canvass for vote across the country.
His greatest undoing is him thinking that he has SW on lockdown and also believing that Imo, Ebonyi and Cross river is also in the bag coz they ve APC governors.
As for those States, they re for Obi ND Obi alone ND the required 25 percent won't go for a Muslim-muslim ticket either coz ATIKU will surely cum 2nd after Obi must ve taken the lion share from those States.
#Obi is surely the candidate to beat dis cumin Election. Just know this and ve peace.

This is the reason why we must avoid hard drugs especially cocaine by all means. Tinubu was a drug lord during his young years, what we're seeing now is the effect of drug usage because any person with functional brains wont be doing this attache-by-force that the blind bat is doing with the Christians who he rejected
Re: CAN President, Daniel Okoh, Distances Self From APC Presidential Campaign List by Obojuju: 8:45pm On Oct 20, 2022
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.
Re: CAN President, Daniel Okoh, Distances Self From APC Presidential Campaign List by LegendHero(m): 8:45pm On Oct 20, 2022
Lol the CAN chairman is jittery that some members of CAN are on the campaign list of Tinubu.

They have shown that they won’t be bamboozled by the god of men that wants to be more Christian than the pope.

God bless the CAN members who saw the situation for what it truly is.

If you like distance yourself, it dosent stop all those CAN members on the list and millions of Christian to vote Asiwaju at the poll.

Lagos CAN chairman already sorosoke and we saw the Benue people openly endorsing Jagaban the other time.

CAN propaganda in the mud.
