Fani-Kayode reacts to Buhari’s meeting with CAN, warns church leaders

A former Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has reacted to the meeting of President Muhammadu Buhari and the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, leadership.

Fani-Kayode, in a post on his verified Twitter handle on Friday, said CAN should not allow itself to be forced into congratulating the All Progressives Congress (APC) over its success at the last presidential election.

He alleged that the ruling party was responsible for the massacres and death of innocent Nigerians and yet rigged themselves back into office.

President Buhari, notwithstanding, assured the Christian leaders of his commitment to leave Nigeria better than he met it in 2015.

He also affirmed that his administration will continue to address important national challenges including security, economy and corruption.

However, Fani-Kayode tweeted, “You cannot claim to be a crusader for justice and a champion of those that have been massacred over the years and then contemplate congratulating those that are responsible for those massacres and that had the temerity to brazenly rig themselves back into power. CAN beware!”
