The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) will meet with the presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar; and Labour Party, Peter Obi, on Wednesday at an interactive session in Abuja.
The CAN President, His Eminence, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, disclosed this during the first leg of the interactive session with 2023 presidential candidates organised by the apex Christian body in Abuja on Tuesday.
The theme of the presidential dialogue is ‘A Prosperous and Peaceful Nigeria Founded on Justice and Freedom for All.’
Recall that Tinubu’s decision to run alongside a fellow Muslim, Kashim Shettima, was met with criticisms from CAN and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, led by Bishop Wale Oke.
Okoh said the country is facing a crisis of development and governance and blamed the challenges on what he described as the “incoherent constitutional and institutional framework” of the country.
He explained that CAN had spent time to review the problems that hindered peace and progress of the country.
