Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has kicked against the Muslim/Muslim ticket presented by the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, describing it as an ungodly act.
According to him, the act would jeopardize the unity of Nigeria.
The former number four citizen of the country dropped this hint during the 12th General Assembly and Leadership Transition Ceremony of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN),
He added that the position of CAN on the same faith ticket is a good and godly position, adding that anything that is against such position is not godly.
“I want to say emphatically that CAN’s position on Muslim/Muslim ticket in this country, at this moment of national peril, is not CAN’s only position, I believe that is God’s position.
“We serve a God of justice, our God is righteous, our God is the author of diversity, and he wants as diverse as we are to come together.
“So, CAN’s position as much as it is a righteous position, it is the position of all of us who live righteousness, justice, diversity and are working to harness it for the advancement of this country,” he said.
He sounded a note of warning that anyone who backs same faith ticket tickets is working against the peacefully co-existence of the country.
“Anybody can say anything, but in as much as what we are standing for is Godly, any other position is ungodly, there is no middle way, you can’t be in the middle, it is either you are for righteousness, justice, inclusivity or you are working against the unity of this great country,” he added.
