2027: Northern Islamic Cleric Alleges N3Million Payments To 500 Clerics At Pro-Tinubu Meetings For Endorsement


A northern cleric has called on religious leaders and voters across the region to reject President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election, alleging that about 500 clerics were mobilised at five separate meetings where millions of naira were distributed to secure support for the President’s re-election.

In a viral video, the cleric alleged that the meetings were held three times in Kaduna, once in Abuja and once in Jigawa as part of efforts to mobilise religious leaders behind Tinubu and secure their endorsement for a second term.

He claimed that about 500 clerics attended the gatherings and alleged that those who attended the Abuja meeting received N3 million each.

At another meeting, according to him, participants were handed parcels containing undisclosed amount of money.

However, the cleric said the religious leaders were not assembled to discuss the worsening economic hardship and security challenge confronting Nigerians or to give feedback on the condition of the people to the President.

Instead, he alleged that the meetings were largely political gatherings presided over by governors, followed by music and praise-singing in support of Tinubu.

He condemned the development, saying religious leaders should serve as representatives of the people before government and as representatives of God before the people.

He argued that clerics should constantly approach authorities with the plight of citizens and demand action on issues affecting their communities rather than allow themselves to be turned into political praise-singers.

Bola is desperately begging for Muslim votes as if the Muslim Muslim ticket is not enough for him he’s now sharing our common wealth to Islamic clerics.

Very desperate clown that sees himself as a lesser Muslim, hence he had to look for a bigger to make himself appealing to real Muslims..

Inferiority complex is a disease

clarocuzioo:
Even Muslims are not moved by his Muslim Muslim ticket as suffer does not ask religion not tribe.

Kobojunkie:
Don't be deceived! The 1000-year Almajiri slave army in the North(some now bused down to the south) remains ready to deliver votes to the highest bidder. 😒😒

➜Someone that calls himself a Muslim but can’t say the simplest of Alhamdulilah fluently isn’t a Muslim. I doubt he can recite Fatiha.

Kobojunkie:
All that is for the poor Islamists out there. Rich Islamists do not worry whether their kids can recite the Quran or not. Nor do they need to worry about praying 5 times a day and all the other rituals associated with the religion. 😒😒

Sheuns:
➜LOL. Aliko Dangote the richest black man alive recites the Quran, so does so many other rich Muslims.

Kobojunkie:
This is a clear example of anecdotal fallacy...pretending that because a handful of rich people that you claim to be aware of can recite the Quran, your claim that one who cannot recite cannot then be an Islamist. 😒😒

Also, the requirements to be an Islamist aren't what you claim. 😒

Sheuns:
➜Guy, stop saying what you don’t know. A very large percentage of Muslims can recite Fatiha and say simple Alhamdulilah fluently. It doesn’t matter rich or poor. Stop displaying ignorance.

The one they dash to CAN nko?

At least the Imams are collecting money from the government unlike your pastor that collects his own money from you while promising you a formless, quixotic, earth-bound version of the 72 Virgins.

smileyoo:
lol. you are right that hunger don't differentiate between tribe and religion of the citizens, but with these tokens to the Islamic clerics, watch how those Islamic clerics, will twist strange narratives that will surely favour the corrupt t-pain at the polls.
T-pain is not called the master strategist for nothing..
unfortunately the Nigeria masses are the people that will pay the price with; pains, tears and blood - the evil consequences for the misrule of any nation.

Bendeco2020:
That's inferiority complex it the news is true.

It means he has accepted that he's not a real Muslim.

Howmuch did Buhari shared to Muslim Clerics for them to support him?
