Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir David has said that All Progressives Congress (APC ) Presidential Candidate Alhaji Bola Tinubu is very desperate
The former SGF stated this in a press release made available to journalists weekend in Bauchi.
Babachir said the desperation by the APC presidential candidate Ahmed Bola Tinubu to convince Nigerians, especially Christians to accept the same faith ticket to no avail is a indication that the ticket is dead on arrival ahead of the 2023 general election.
” Nigerians have reached out to him and former Speaker Yakubu Dogara to convince them to accept the same faith ticket of APC and negotiate with the party.
“We have so far not taken the road to reconciliation because in the first instance, neither the APC as a party nor its presidential candidate has bothered to seek us out for reconciliation even though early on, our doors were left open for such, ” Babachir said.
“We only get to learn of their views through vile propaganda in the media courtesy of their rabid attack dogs whom they have procured in abundance.
“There are of course some “Christian” turncoats and “Judases” who, driven either by moral turpitude, poverty or greed, have hired themselves out as agents and spoilers of this noble Christian course.
“To this group, I wish to recommend the study of the biographies of Judas Iscariot and Ahithophel in the Bible. Be careful to note how their lives ended.
“It seems that Bola/Kashim’s preferred approach is to attempt to counter our position through insults and sponsored fake Christian organizations in order to create the impression that there is division within Christendom on this matter.
“Needless to say, this tactic has failed woefully. They are now the butt of jokes in church gatherings all over the country. Unknown to them Church history emphatically records that Christians are more united in terms of adversity and persecution as now being propelled by this MM ticket of the APC.
“This approach has also portrayed the duo as arrogant and pitiable people whilst also exposing them to the public as people with unimaginable deficiencies of noble character.
“The reality is that for each minute that this same-faith ticket duo have spent on their goebellsian propaganda, they have ended up spending several hours more trying to rebut the controversies that they themselves create in the process.
“Everyone, including some notable Christian haters, are now inviting false ”Bishops and CAN Leaders to meetings. They are busy fabricating overnight “christian” organizations that churn out falsehood to the public. It is such a pity that people who intend to lead our country could descend to such low levels of morality and deficiency of conscience,” the statement said.
