Oshiomhole: Those against Muslim-Muslim ticket inciting religious violence

Former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, says some of those criticising his party’s Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket lack moral justification to do so.

 

Speaking on Arise TV on Wednesday, Oshiomhole warned Nigerians to be mindful of those trying to cause a religious war in the country over.

 

He noted that the some of the major antagonists of the same faith ticket are standing trial for corruption.

 

 

Speaking on Bola Tinubu, APC presidential candidate, picking Kashim Shettima, the former governor of Borno, who is also a Muslim, as his running mate for the 2023 presidential election, Oshiomhole described the detractors as “Christians by mouth and devils by heart” and accused them of trying to incite religious violence.

 

He added that Tinubu has shown religious tolerance by being married to a “Christian wife for about 40 years.

 

“This country has survived religious wars. Even people who are on record of being prosecuted for misappropriating money that a Muslim governor appropriated in favour of Christian children who were displaced. They are now the new voice of Christianity.

 

“So, we must distinguish between Christian by mouth and devil by heart, who wants to see Nigeria engulfed in a war that nobody can win. Asiwaju (Tinubu) has a Christian wife of about 40 years and is happily married. Is that not an example of what the nation should be?” CONTINUE READING………
