This social media tout!
Education has really really failed you with this hogwash.
I have said it time without number that God so loves Nigerian muslims that they're more in number than Christians otherwise Christians will have make it look as they're 90% of the population and as a result would have relegated them to third class citizens.
They will have deny the Muslims the positions such as president, VP, SP, House Speaker etc.
I want to state here without fear of contradiction that THE NUMBER OF CHRISTIANS OF NORTHERN EXTRACTION IS QUITE INSIGNIFICANT.!
El-Rufai has already exposed their lies in Kaduna without their votes Muslim-Muslim ticket sailed through.
The same thing would happen at the national level in 2023 God willing, Muslim-Muslim ticket and Tinubu will emerged as president.
Christian votes are nothing to Muslim voters in the country

Everybody is a political Animal...

Every one is human first before taking up pastoral or Islamic Job..

Been a Pastor or imam should not stop u from seeking political office...

If your community see u as best person to represent or serve their interest, what stop u from doing so. Moreover everyone be it politicians or religious leaders want to serve and help humanity to the very best of their ability and capacity...

SarkinYarki:
Nigeria needs to ban APC ..it's is the greatest threat to our National Security since independence

GreyLaw:
You are smart. God bless you. I like your detribalised analysis of issues.

NessFortunate:
well said, in the sense that it ought to be CAPABILITY AND COMPETENCE OVER RELIGIOUSITY AND ETHNICITY. Haven said that, is El-rufai saying that there are no CAPAPBLE, QUALIFIED CHRISTIANS THAT ARE APC MEMBERS? And again would he saying this, if the Narrative was to be CHRISTIAN CHRISTIAN TICKET PARADIGN SHIFT? I leave these questions for my opponents to ANSWER.

Mooh247:




CAN are now scared to see how utterly useless they are just like MURIC, they influence nothing

They backed Jonathan and even prophesied he failed woefully

They backed Pastor Osinbajo, they still chop Banku for breakfast

CAN should either grow up and negotiate like normal stakeholders or continue their hypocrisy and Religious bigotry

Honestly these people think we are fools. I watched the interview yesterday evening while he was just talking rubbish about competence.
Like you rightly said; what has his muslim muslim ticket done in terms of security for Kaduna?

The level of insecurity in the South now that we're complaining about would be worse under a Muslim Muslim administration.

Apart from Christians being relegated for government jobs, you won't even be able to travel freely within Southern state's cos you will be kidnapped or killed.

I saw a lot of handles here promoting Muslim Muslim ticket..... All of them were muslims even the one from PassingSh.

They would never allow a christian christian ticket. They are all deceivers.

CheapHomes1:
They can easily sort it out cos they have a few northern christians in their ranks except they are bent on Muslim ticket

MidasKinki:
Are you in anyway suggesting that we have only Christian victims of banditry in Kaduna? Like WhyTF will anyone be like that?

You people machination is appalling. You have already trained your eyes to not to see people of other religions who have suffered from insecurity in Kaduna state because it doesn't serves the conspiracy you push. You filter statements, happenings, misrepresent them in ways that suit your evil cause. This is not right though. Never right.

maasoap:
Lol. Christian-Christian ticket had been happening in all states of the SS, SE and some states in SW since 1999, no interpretation like they were testing water. Even in Osun state that's predominantly a Muslim state, PDP won with Christian-Christian ticket. Even now, this year election is still Christian-Christian ticket. But it happened in kaduna state with Muslim-Muslim, they were testing water.

The truth is that the only true chance APC gets right now is Muslim-Muslim ticket. It doesn't matter the religion of the VP candidate they choose, you guys that wouldn't vote for the party won't vote for it

blancsn1:
Will you be voting Tinubu if he chose a Christian VP ? I know for a fact you won't so you can rot in the deepest part of hell when he chose is Muslin Muslim ticket n this is coming from a Redeemer not just a Christian.

TheNiceGuy:
Those who are against this will NEVER even vote APC, they're just being manipulative because that ticket will be a catastrophe for their Party

joyandfaith:
We shouldn’t even consider tribe. Fashola can be Tinubu running mate. We should forget religion and tribe. Rubbish!!!!!

El-Rufai on Muslim-Muslim ticket: Fixation of Nigerians on religion is pathetic

Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna, says the “fixation” of Nigerians on the religion of political office holders is “pathetic and sad”.

El-Rufai spoke on Friday in an interview with Channels Television.

With the election of presidential candidates of political parties, there have been concerns about the religion of the candidates and their intended running mates.

Since the two major political parties — All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) — have Muslim presidential candidates, many people, including the Christian Association of Nigeria have asked that their running mates should be Christians.

Asked to react to the speculation of a Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket in the APC, the Kaduna governor said the business of governance has nothing to do with religion.

He added that religion will not solve the problems of Nigeria, adding it is the competency of the elected leaders that will solve the problems.

“I don’t look at people from the lens of Muslim-Muslim or Christian-Christian, some of my closest friends are Christians,” he said.

“It was Pastor Tunde Bakare, a pentecostal pastor, who took me to CPC, not President Muhammadu Buhari. I’m very close to Pastor Bakare. I’m very close to many Christians.

“I don’t think the business of governance has to do with religion. I think we should look for the best person for the job. The person who will get the job done.

“I’m the wrong person to ask that question because in my state I picked a very competent and qualified woman as my running mate in the 2019 elections.

“But just because she happens to be a Muslim, people were calling it Muslim-Muslim ticket and they said we are going to lose. We didn’t. We won overwhelmingly.

“This fixation of Nigerians with religion instead of competence, capacity and capability is quite sad and pathetic and I urge you as the media to take religion out of governance and let’s look for capacity, competence and delivery.

“I don’t think we should be looking at religion. We want to develop this country. When I get into a plane I don’t ask about the religion of the pilot. When I go to the hospital, I don’t ask about the religion of the doctor. I just want to get well and get to my destination even on an aircraft.

“Nigeria is at crossroads. We face very serious dangers in security, economic meltdown, and global issues affecting us. All that people are concerned with as far as who will be president and vice-president, is religion.

“It is not our religion that will solve our problems. It is people who are competent, capable that will address Nigeria’s problems, unite the country and put it on a progressive path.”

PaChukwudi44:
Where is passing shit? He should come and tell us how Tinubu would summon Adeboye,Oyedepo and Kumuyi to accept Muslim-muslim ticket

Nigerians can never be satisfied. First it was southern president, now its a Christian president. I wonder what's next.

I thought we were in a democracy. Make your choice and let ther make theirs. May the best candidate (for the country) win

Dear Samson Olasupo Adeniyi Ayokunle,


This is a letter of huge concern to you and other Christians in Nigeria. While this is not intended to cause chaos or problems, it is of a very significant importance for the continuity of Christianity in Nigeria. It is very obvious that Nigeria is a multi-religious society with Christianity and Islam as 2 major religions. Now, Nigeria has existed this long because of equity, justice and equality between entities that make up this union called Nigeria.

As you are aware sir, APC recently concluded their primaries with Tinubu emerging as the candidate. Atiku won same for the PDP. APC is of more concern to me because APC governors claimed to have met and insisted on power shift to the south.

Now i ask, if there is a need for power to be shifted to the south, why is it not been shifted to a southern Christian since PMB, a Muslim just completed 8 years. Why is everyone been smart by half in insisting that power shifts to the south and not to a Christian?

Analyzing further, A Tinubu presidency means power will remain with a Muslim for 8 years and another Muslim norther takes over for 8 years which gives a 24 cumulative Muslim rule in a multi religious country. To even make things worse, APC is making things worse and testing the waters by mentioning a MUSLIM-MUSLIM ticket to get reactions..... CAN ARISE OOOOOOO in Nigeria

I anticipate that responses will soon come saying that competence is what matters and not the persons religion. Does it mean there is no competent Christian in the south or a competent Christian VP from the south? This is the reason for the growing worries

Where is the equality in power shift to the south but not to a Christian?

It is surprising that the CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA has been this docile and quiet in the face of this glaring issue of humongous worry. As stated earlier, this is not intended to stair up any dust but to raise a very important issue so that all the political parties will adjust.

Let the same equality emotion that made the APC governors decide that power goes to the south be used to give power to a southern christian.

Dear CAN President, speak up now!!!!! Because if the reverse was the case, the leadership would have since been screaming...


Thank you

I have read a lot of people saying "no to Muslim-Muslim ticket" even before Asiwaju emerged. Now that he has emerged as the standard bearer of APC with Atiku as the major challenge to him, I wonder why a Muslim-Muslim ticket of Tinubu presidency is not better than a return of the presidency to north possibly for another eight years after 8 years of PMB.

Like or loathe APC, it has demonstrated being a truly progressive party by standing with a return of the presidency to the South even after Atiku had emerged as PDP's candidate. PDP damned everything common sense by making Atiku emerge with possibility of keeping the presidency in the north and a lot of people seem not to care because PDP is doing what they need to do to win the election without considering fairness and equity.

I am strongly convinced that when the time comes, majority of voters will side with an APC' Muslim-Muslim ticket which returns presidency to the south and reject a Muslim-Christian ticket which keeps the presidency to the north for another eight years to make it 16 straight years of Northern dominance.

Make una laugh small


Bayern raised their initial bid from £21.5m to £23.5m, with the other[b] £6.5m[/b] only coming in full if Mane won the Champions League three times in Munich and supplemented that with three Ballon d'Ors. It was an offer that left Anfield officials bemused.

The German champions are trying to get £43m from Barcelona for Robert Lewandowski and Liverpool believe that figure is reflective of Mane's worth. Barcelona, intriguingly, are also interested in Mane, whose form in 2022 has been outstanding..
