After Opposing Muslim-Muslim Ticket, CAN Fixes Date To Meet Tinubu

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) will meet with presidential candidates, including All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Bola Tinubu, who has decided to run on a Muslim-Mulsim platform.

CAN President Archbishop Daniel Okoh explained that during the first leg of an interactive session with 2023 presidential candidates held by the top Christian organization in Abuja on Tuesday, his organization reviewed the issues impeding peace and progress in the country and articulated suggestions on how to best improve them.

He blamed the difficulties Nigerians continue to face on the country’s “incoherent constitutional and institutional framework.”

The presidential dialogue’s theme is “A Prosperous and Peaceful Nigeria Based on Justice and Freedom for All.”

On the plans, Okoh said: “We have consulted with Nigerians of diverse religious, ethnic and social identities on the problems of the country and the solutions to them have been articulated in the strategic document we call, the ‘Charter for Future Nigeria.’

“The Charter for Future Nigeria begins with a diagnosis of Nigeria’s problem and locates it primarily in an incoherent constitutional and institutional framework that defines governance and social and economic interactions in Nigeria.

“This incoherence is the main reason the country today is almost submerged in the chaos of insecurity, instability, and economic stagnation.

“The document considers this incoherence in political, social, and economic dimensions. It makes genuine recommendations for resolving Nigeria’s recurrent crises that border on justice and fairness, equality of all ethnic and religious groups, equal access to basic economic and social rights, political freedom and an egalitarian and just social order.”

He also stated that the main goal of the dialogue is to ensure that each presidential candidate fully understands the issues affecting Nigerian Christians and offers solutions in the form of programs and policies.

“We believe that with this kind of respectful and sincere conversation, we will find lasting solutions to these crises.

“The overriding concept in this transformation is ‘democratic citizenship’, which should be the focus of governance at all levels in Nigeria in promoting the socioeconomic well-being of every Nigerian citizen, irrespective of religion, ethnicity or social pedigree,” the CAN President added.
