The Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress
(APC), Bola Tinubu, has congratulated Archbishop Daniel Okoh, General
Superintendent of Christ Holy Church (Odozi-Obodo), on his election as the
President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN).
Tinubu’s congratulatory message was contained in a statement
by his Media Office and signed by Mr. Tunde Rahman.
Recall that CAN had on Thursday formally validated the
election of Okoh as its new President.
Tinubu, who noted that Okoh is a worthy successor to
Ayokunle, also lamented the current security situation in the country, saying
Nigeria is in a critical moment where misguided and terrible actors attempt to
destroy social harmony and reign violence on everyone.
The former Lagos State governor said: “I congratulate Rev.
Okoh on his election as the new President of CAN. Rev. Okoh has truly
distinguished himself as the deputy to Rev. Ayokunle.”
Tinubu added, “As a nation, we are in a critical moment
where misguided and terrible actors attempt to destroy social harmony and reign
violence on us all.
“These awful forces seek to stoke religious and ethnic
divisions in the hope of pitting Nigerian brother against Nigerian brother.
Decent and good Nigerians of all faiths must ally again with such designs.
“As Rev. Okoh assumes the mantle of leadership, it is my
hope and prayer that his tenure brightens every corner of our country and may
he be a shining light to all.”
