The Christian Association of Nigeria has said that it had been waiting for the possible announcement of a Muslim-Muslim ticket announcement by the All Progressives Congress as far as the presidential election is concerned.
It, on Sunday, expressed disapproval of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s announcement of Kashim Shettima as his running mate as both are Christians.
The association’s chairman, Kaduna State chapter, Rev. John Hayab, in an interview with ‘The Vanguard’, said, “We were ready for this announcement. We have put some media outlets on notice. All we are waiting for is the right signal to give a full blown reaction.
“We’ll escalate this issue because our call for fairness and the balancing of the presidential ticket for the sake justice, unity and fairness apparently fell on deaf ears.
“However, CAN is strongly determined to sacrifice everything to protect the interest of the Church in Nigeria. We will not be moved by any form of intimidation.”
