CAC-NIG urges Christians who have been elected into the NationalAssembly to ensure that the Senate and House of Representatives do not end up being headed by Muslims, as “it would set the most dangerous precedence in the polity.” Nigeria Politics

The Christian Association of Clergies in Nigeria has urged Christians, who have been elected into the National Assembly to ensure that the Senate and House of Representatives do not end up being headed by Moslems.

National President of CAC-NIG, Archbishop Yiman Orkwar, expressed the concern in a statement issued by his Special Assistant on Media, Pastor Ortindi Torough Baka, and made available to The Guardian in Makurdi yesterday. “We urge our Christian faithful never to allow what seems to be a deliberate plan by Moslems to be actualised in the country in our generation. Posterity will never forgive them if they allow this plan to succeed.”

“In 2007, when David Mark was Senate President and Patricia Etteh was Speaker of the House of Representatives, the then Chief Justice of Nigeria , Idris Legbo Kutigi was a Moslem. He took over from another Moslem, Salihu Moddibo Alfa Belgore.

Rubbish!

This statement by this faggot is the summary of PDP.

Ignorance in the name of religion. People won't work for competence they'll work for their fake gods.

Why is this important?

Kaduna in my mind. Hope the scenerio in kaduna won't repeat itself in the national assembly, going this move? wearewatching.

Is a good advise and a lesson for the Muslims too. Let's play the game of numbers simple. Nonsense, how do we then develop the nation call Nigeria with this divisive move made by this Christian group?

This is a bad motion raised.

I say it again! Religions are time bomb

How will the president Buhari moslem (CJN)Tanko moslem And u want to make Moslem Gbajabiamila speaker Moslem lawal senate president Its to much and too obvious haba were is Nigeria heading to ?

Religious bodies/organisations should stand up for the basic rights of the ordinary man, and be consistent in doing so.

Really stupid.

We need to ditch all these to progress as a nation.

The church, not government should be blamed for ills in society | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World NewsBishop insists that the church and “not the government” should be blamed for the high rate of ritual killings, especially by youths in a bid to get rich. ICYMI Nigeria Parents, Teachers, Traditional Rulers and the various Religious Leaders should be responsible and held liable...... Yes, it is true, the Church has failed the masses in every aspect. Is it on religious matters, frauds, private education? Just name them.
