Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, on Wednesday, described the All Progressives Congress, APC, Muslim-Muslim ticket as an insult on the Christendom.<\/p>\n

The Anglican Bishop of Kubwa Diocese, Rev. Dr. Duke Akamisoko, said Christians would make their choice in response to APC\u2019s Muslim-Muslim decision.<\/p>\n

Against the outcry of Nigerians, the APC\u2019s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu picked Kashim Shettima, a Northern Muslim as his running mate.<\/p>\n

Reacting, Akamisoko described the Muslim-Muslim ticket as insensitive<\/p>\n

He spoke to journalists during the 2022 Pre-Synod briefing which held in Abuja.<\/p>\n

Akamisoko said: \u201cMuslim-Muslim ticket at a time like this is a demonstration of insensitivity to the plurality of religion, the polarised nature of Nigeria, the plight of Christians in Nigeria and the feelings of Christians in Northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, it is a direct insult on the entire Christendom. The APC has made a choice; it is left to Christians in Nigeria to also make their choice.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere can never be a rational explanation for such a selfish, greedy and self-centered decision by the APC. It is irresponsible of the APC to take its political survival over the stability and peace of Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n
