Tinubu/shettima Muslim-muslim Ticket Will End In Spectacular Failure –dogara, Ex by happney65: 8:52pm On Sep 20, 2022 |
A former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara has described the adoption of a Muslim-Muslim ticket by the All Progressives Congress for the 2023 presential election as a fruitless political effort. Dogara knocked the APC’s insistence on going to the 2023 presidential poll with a Muslim-Muslim ticket, saying it is bound to end in spectacular failure. The presidential candidate of the APC, Bola Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima are Muslims. Dogara expressed the view on Tuesday in Abuja while delivering his keynote address at a summit tagged, ‘Meet The Church,’ organised by the Nigeria National Christian Coalition with the theme: ‘The role of the church in nation-building’. The former Speaker urged Christians not to waste their votes in the 2023 general elections, The Punch reports. He said, “In their convoluted posturing, they have placed state-building ahead of nation-building; a task never before achieved in history and we need no seer to tell us that such endeavour is guaranteed to end in spectacular failure. No divided people have ever built any civilization “I am so elated that today’s church in Nigeria has shaken off the beast of the complacency of the past into fire by speaking up and resisting measures adopted by some political platforms that will hamper nation building. “In a manner that negated the fundamentals of nation building, such as shared identity, values and visions, the APC adopted a same faith ticket in a country that has never attained nationhood. "Long before the adoption of the same faith ticket, the church had warned against it through the Christian Association of Nigeria, Catholic Secretariat, ECWA and so many other Christian organisations. “These warnings were not only ignored but dismissed in one fell swoop by the APC presidential candidate who strangely believes that he can build a strong, secure and viable nation-state without first forging a shared identity, vision and values for our people thereby enabling us transit from citizens of a country into a nation of people with strong shared identity and values. “To demonstrate that the church is right, it is not alone in condemning the same faith ticket. Other prominent Islamic clerics and Muslim leaders have also spoken in the same light. “It is a good omen that both Christian and Muslim elites are not complacent over this matter. To this end, it will be easy to generate the needed elite consensus that is key to nation-building. All nations are built by elite consensus while all countries that failed in nation-building were destroyed by elite complacency. “Every Christian knows that our God does not tolerate waste. It is unchristian for the church to waste anything given to us from above as we own nothing except what is given to us from above. “I have gone to great lengths to demonstrate that the church must not waste its votes or sow same on unproductive grounds. “Every Christian must see his vote as talents given to him by God to trade with and as seeds that must not be wasted. “The only way we can build a nation out of Nigeria is by doing the right things. A united, inclusive, peaceful and prosperous Nigeria is possible if we go to work. We can start building that Nigeria of our dreams if we don’t waste our votes in the next election circle,” he added. https://saharareporters.com/2022/09/20/tinubushettima-muslim-muslim-ticket-will-end-spectacular-failure-dogara-ex-house-reps |

My problem is that Nigerian Christians are easy by overs. Once they see money, they lose their senses. Later same Christians will turn and be shouting they are killing Christians in Nigeria. No single Christian, I repeat no Christian will have the courage to float Christian-Christian ticket. None at all. I trust Muslims to do a protest vote and send his career packing. Muslims can hardly be bought over with money. Sometimes I laugh when Christians accuse Muslims of trying to Islamise them. Why won't you be Islamized when you have so much lust for money? Muslims in the north are even agitating more against Muslim Muslim ticket than the Christians. Tinubu intentionally insulted Christians and decided to rub salt on injury when he hired fake bishops. How many Christians can courageously hire fake Imams? Give them quran to go to a political gathering? How many? We Christians should reduce our lust for money so that we can earn respect. If you are a Christian and get bought over to vote this Muslim Muslim ticket, I pity your generations. 1 Like |
