APC governor speaks on ‘hiring’ of Catholic priests at Shettima’s unveiling

Abdullahi Sule, Governor of Nasarawa State, has said he could not say if those who appeared as clerics at the official presentation of former Governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima as the running mate of the presidential flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, are truly Catholic priests.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the event which held at the Shehu Yar’adua center in Abuja saw supposed representatives of the Catholic Church.

Critics of Tinubu say the bishops were hired by the former Lagos State governor’s campaign team to give Christian voters a false impression that his decision to pick a fellow Muslim despite strong objections and national security implications was accepted by the Christian community.

“Well, if they are hired, we didn’t see that,” Sule said while speaking in an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Wednesday evening.

“Maybe the same people who are on the streets today too were hired (referring to anti Muslim-Muslim ticket campaigners). You know, it’s the same thing. Can you compare the calibre of people who are on the street to the calibre of people who have just entered that event to be there?”
