Catholic Bishops Condemn APC, Tinubu’s Choice Of ‘Muslim-Muslim’ Ticket: Nigeria Not Ripe To Have President, VP Of Same Faith

Catholic Bishops Condemn APC, Tinubu’s Choice Of ‘Muslim-Muslim’ Ticket: Nigeria Not Ripe To Have President, VP Of Same Faith
Shettima, a Muslim, was announced on Sunday as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the party, Bola Tinubu, a fellow Muslim.


As reactions continued to trail the choice of Senator Kashim Shettima as the vice-presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress for the 2023 election, Catholic bishops have vowed to make their own choice in the poll.

Shettima, a Muslim, was announced on Sunday as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the party, Bola Tinubu, a fellow Muslim.

The Christian community in Nigeria has condemned the choice of a Muslim-Muslim ticket, saying for the sake of balance, a Christian should have been picked by the ruling party as its vice-presidential candidate.

SaharaReporters had reported that the former Borno State Governor, Shettima was announced as the running mate to the Lagos politician on Sunday in Daura, President Muhammadu Buhari's home town in Katsina State, confirming rumours that the party would use a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

But reacting, the Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Most Rev. Ignatius Kaigama, described the choice of APC Muslim-Muslim ticket as unfortunate.

Archbishop Kaigama maintained that Nigeria as a country was not ripe for a same faith Presidential ticket.


“When you decide that only one religion will produce the major actors, excluding others who will become like strangers, it would not be fair and just. For the sake of religious sensitivity in a place like Nigeria, it is good that we have a balance so that we become like one big family,” he said.

Similarly, the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Most Rev Hassan Kukah said it was up to Nigerians to decide if they want a Muslim-Muslim Nigerian leadership or not in 2023.

Politics Nigeria quoted Bishop Kukah to have said, “This is what you call team selection and everybody will choose depending on what they think will give them a fair chance. So, people will take responsibility for the choices they have made. For me, it is not something to lose sleep over.

“If people feel unhappy with the kind of choices that have been made, that is why we are democrats, you can’t force it. We outsiders cannot force a choice of any candidate.

“It is now left for you to look at the choices that have been made. And there is no guarantee that all Christians will vote for Christians and all Muslims will vote for Muslims."

The Director of Social Communication, Catholic Secretariat of Nigeria, Rev Fr. Mike Umoh, described the ‘Muslim-Muslim’ ticket as ‘Insensitive’.

“We have made our stance and made it clear. Muslim/Muslim ticket doesn’t make sense; it is unhealthy and insensitive for now,” he said.

There won't be unity among us should Tinubu becomes president.

All christians lives will be in danger.

The one happening under osinbanjo and Buhari is a clear sign of what to befall Christians should Tinubu becomes president.

The current killing of Christians and attack on churches by Boko Haram, Bandits and ISWAP will become child's play when we now have Muslim President and Muslim Vice President.
Any christian that goes out to support or campaign or vote for Muslim Muslim ticket is forever doomed and the blood of innocent christians that have been gruesomely murdered and massacred by this blood thirsty Jihadist terrorists will forever hunt any Christian who supports, votes or campaigns for this devilis

Anybody supporting this evil ticket is evil and a hypocrite.
I'm sure that jihad would've been declared up north immediately the announcement was made, if it had been Christian-Christian ticket.

Meanwhile, incase you are still adamant, read below and imagine what will be the result of this ticket in near future;

BLASPHEMY: Adamawa law school student allegedly suffers matchete head injuries for praying rosary on the street.

And this is a country where APC is fronting a Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket. God forbid! Those of you supporting the ticket today because it favours you should endeavour to do so when it's the other way round.

I say no to Muslim-Muslim or Christian-Christian presidential ticket �
