\n
A former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) and chieftain of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Dr Babachir Lawal has declared that God of justice and equity through Nigerian voters will decide the victor between the Nigerian Christian and Bola Tinubu\u2019s Muslim-Muslim ticket for APC in the 2023 presidential election.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\nThe elder statesman insisted that Tinubu had proved to be daring and uncaring for the Nigerian Christians in the coming general election and beyond.<\/p>\n

The former SGF made the declaration on Saturday in a fresh press statement in reaction to the final submission of a Muslim politician by Tinubu as his running mate in the 2023 presidential poll.<\/p>\n

The statement obtained by our correspondent read in part: \u201cI did say it: \u2018those the gods want to destroy they first make mad.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cTinubu has thrown down the gauntlet. He has submitted Alhaji Kashim Shetima as his nominee. He has stood by his affirmation that he only requires moslem votes to be president and for all he cares, Christians can all go to hell with their votes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is his position and he has a right to it. I concede to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have picked up this gauntlet. The God of justice and equity through the Nigerian voter will decide the victor between the Nigerian Christian, Alhaji Tinubu and his party the APC.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is our country and we will not let Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu relegate us, our children and our religion to second class status in our own country.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, this as an existential crisis. Our rights to justice and peaceful co-existense with all practitioners of other religions is under threat.<\/p>\n

\u201cA northern Nigerian Christian child deserves to be bequeathed a future in which he can aspire to be president or vice president of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Bible supports our position and the Nigerian Constitution supports and even guarantees it.<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on Alhaji Tinubu! Come on APC!<\/p>\n

\u201cAgain, \u201cto your tents o Israel. \u201d The Bible records a time like this in history:<\/p>\n

\u201c1 Chronicles 12: 32: \u2018from the tribe of Issachar, there were 200 leaders of the tribe with their relatives. All these men understood the signs of the times and knew the best course for Israel to take,\u2019 the statement said.<\/p>\n

Babachir Lawal who is one of the closest allies of the APC\u2019S presidential candidate and former Lagos State governor, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has consistently warned the APC and Tinubu against any attempt to adopt Muslim-Muslim ticket for coming election.<\/p>\n

To demonstrate his vehement opposition, he wrote four personal letters to Tinubu counselling him on the consequences of going for Muslim-Muslim ticket at the expense of the Nigerian Christian in the Northern region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
