A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress(APC) Senator Solomon Olamikekan (Yayi) has admonished Nigerian Christians,particularly Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) to put their mindset rest on the issue of Muslim- Muslim ticket adopted by his party stressing that Tinubu is fair-minded politician and leader.
Senate Yayi ,Senate Committee Chairman on Finance disclosed that majority of the APC Presidential candidate’s political associates are Christians.
Speaking at a programme organised by Diaspora Tinubu Support Organisation (TSO) in Lambeth Town Hall,London ,the Senator representing Lagos West Senatirial District expressed concern about the heated debate about Tinubu describing it as unnecessary.
He said ” Majority of Tinubu’s associates are Christians. People should not try to paint what is white black because of politics. Tinubu’s nas been married to his Christian wife for over forty years and he has not done anything to her .stop her or do anything to undermine christianity as a religion .So people should not engage in cheap political blackmail.
” Tinubu is healthy , capable and prepared for the job. So I want to urge my Christians brothers which I am one to put their minds at rest .We know this man called Tinubu and we have worked with him closely too.We know what he stands for and we know his intention and perception about religion ” he added .
