Category: Nigeria News
Apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide
has reacted to the appearance of certain “Bishops” during the unveiling of
Kashim Shettima as the Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, APC.
Recall Shettima was unveiled as
Bola Tinubu’s running mate in Abuja on Wednesday, during which some persons said to be
Bishops were spotted.
The controversial presence of the said
Bishops came at a time
Tinubu’s choice of Shettima, a fellow Muslim, was attracting concerns.

However, the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, as well as the
Catholic Church have since described the Bishops as fake.
Reacting
to the development, the National President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council
Worldwide, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike and the National Secretary, Comrade Obinna
Achionye said it was frightening and shocking that certain persons could go
that far in the name of politics.
The OYC said they were awed by
“the level of desperation being displayed by the APC presidential campaign
group”, stressing that “every well meaning Nigerian should also be concerned
because such persons do not mean well for the country.”

They added that “if the
Tinubu
campaign team could go as far as hiring people from the streets and giving
them bishopric attires just to claim acceptance by the Christian community,
then anything else is possible.
“Frankly, we are troubled by that
show of shame; we are worried over that level of desperation and it is a
warning sign, a wake up call to all Nigerians.
“To worsen the
matter, the hirelings were seen sharing money openly at a popular hotel in
Abuja just a few minutes after the event.

“How can we explain the fact that the same
Tinubu
who could not find a competent Christian as his running mate, was able to find
hordes of street urchins who paraded themselves as Bishops? So, after all,
Christians are now important to the Tinubu campaign. This is hypocrisy to the
highest level and we urge Nigerians to be watchful.”
The Ohanaeze
youths concluded that no level of gimmick would change the fact that
Tinubu
decided to toy with the unity and collective good of all segments of the
country.
APC is a curse to the nation
