While Nigerians continue to speak against same-faith ticket opted for by the All Progressive Congress (APC) for its 2023 presidential candidates, Nigerian Christian community wakes to another rude shock by the party following its planned rally slated for 9.am on the 9th October, 2023.
The party, of all days, chose Sunday, 9am for its 5million man march. A time many Christian faithful’s are expected to be in Church.
Some of the respondents said that APC insensitivity towards one of the major religious sects in Nigeria – Christianity has been taken to an all high and irresponsible level.
“For heaven’s sake, how can a party that flies Muslim-muslim ticket chose Sundays of all days for its rally. It foretells what lies ahead. If Tinubu and Shettima are allowed to mount that seat as President and Vice President, that would mean the end of Christianity in Nigeria. The signs are all here for us to see. They tested it in Kaduna and go and ask the Christian dominated Southern Kaduna people what their experience so far looks like. Bringing it to the Federal level will bring in total collapse of Christianity in Nigeria.
Another respondent who did not want his name mentioned described it as an insensitivity taken too far.
“First it was same-faith ticket. Now it is Sunday, 9am rally. The next thing they will request you is to donate your worship centers as party secretariats.
