EDITOR’S PICK:

EKO HOT BLOG reports that a clergyman who was present when Kashim Shettima was introduced as the APC’s vice presidential nominee has responded to the controversy that surrounded their presence.

According to Igbokwe Prince, senior pastor at Yoke Breaker Prophetic Ministry in Abuja, they attended the ceremony on Wednesday at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Center out of respect for the party’s stance on the Muslim-Muslim ticket.

He said most of the clergymen at the event had backed Yakubu Pam, the Executive Secretary of Christian Pilgrims Commission, as vice-presidential candidate of the APC, but that when that option failed, they had to respect the decision of the APC on same faith ticket.

Mr Prince said Christians should accept that APC took the decision to win the election. He warned that religion should not be mixed with his politics.

“Christian communities and Christian organisations —I don’t think they are political parties. What the party (APC) has done is in the best interest of the party because every political party wants to win an election.

“When you bring religion inside a political party, it will definitely not augur well— not give them the edge to win an election,” he said.
