Don’t Be Deceived By Buhari’s Overtures, PDP Chieftain Warns Christians

Muhammadu Buhari

Presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari has been trying his best to change opinion in some quarters that he is a religious extremist. He even chose a pastor as his running mate to further show he is not a hard line Muslim as believed by many.

However, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State and candidate for Egor/Ikpoba-Okha Federal Constituency seat in the February 14, 2015 National Assembly elections, Hon. Ehiozuwa Johnson Agbonayinma, has urged the Christian communities nationwide not to be deceived by his overtures.

“The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, has begun questionable romance with the Church with the aim of securing its critical support in the 2015 presidential election,” a statement by the PDP chieftain said.

“It is indeed worrisome that Gen. Buhari has become very desperate to win the presidency, hence his overture to the Church, where I gathered he is now being taught how to sing Christian songs, which he will sing during campaign.

“This is patently unacceptable as this questionable romance runs contrary to Buhari’s antecedents and the records of his public positions and declarations on the issue of religion.

“This is a man who had, in the past, cared less about hurting the sensibilities of Christians with his fanatical disposition about Muslim religion.

“He said in August 27, 2001 that he would ‘continue to show openly and inside me the total commitment to the Sharia movement that is sweeping all over Nigeria,’ and was quoted to have further declared, ‘God willing, we will not stop the agitation for the total implementation of the Sharia in the country,” he said.

  1. PDP’s are always Liars, our administration is nothing but a total failure/deceive nd stealings of our nations funds. And the worst part is that you only know your families nd children…you don’t even want to see masses””” wallahi you will not deceive us with your rubbish religious sentimens.we must Vote PDP out..,gen BUHARI/pastor OSINBAJO are the right answer to our situations.

  2. A government in power for over 16 years but nothing to show for it but corruption, high unemployment, insecurity, bad road, stealing public funds, demonism, etc is telling us to be careful of General Buhari. What have we got to loose if we voted for Buhari come 2015? It can’t be worse than what it is now. I don’t think so.

  3. What PDP government had tamed for 16 years is about to be get loose. APC is about to truncate our democracy with there evil minded mission. well, whatever comes out of it will be share according to your size. who knows if some of us will later join force to protect our defenceless one.

  4. You cannot deceive Nigerians again with your fallible allegation on a man of integrity like Buhari. Buhari is an impeccable and incorruptible element. He is not a religious bigotry. PDP should face issues instead of crying foul on religion and parochial accusation. Jonathan is destroying Nigeria, and we must join hands together to rescue Nigeria from his hand insha Allah! May God Almighty safe us from their demonic plots. Ameen.
