President of CAN (Christian Association of Nigeria), Archbishop Daniel Okoh has distanced himself from a revised member list of Tinubu/Shettima 2023 President Campaign Council.

Reacting to the names of outgoing Christian officials being included on the list, the CAN President stated that CAN was well-known for its non-partisanship stance.

He also stated that the Christian body would launch an investigation into this matter. The statement was as follows:

"1. My attention as President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has been drawn to the revised list of ntmembers of the Tinubu/Shettima 2023 President Campaign Council wherein the names of some outgoing officials of the body were featured.

2. Such a development is worrisome because it counters the well-known stance of CAN on partisanship.

3. I want to categorically exonerate my humble self from this development and any of such that may occur in the future.

4. I want to use this medium to assure all Christians in Nigeria and the general public that since I received the news, I have commenced full investigation into how the officials got involved into overt partisanship.

5. At the end of the probe, CAN will take fair, but decisive and appropriate action with a view to defending the ideals of the umbrella Christian body I lead by the grace of the Almighty God.

6. On a final note, I urge the general public to be calm while we collectively work to entrench a culture of inclusion and respect for our religious diversities in our political leadership.

Signed:

Archbishop Daniel Okoh

President,

Christian Association of Nigeria"
