Stick to your religious calling, Presidency tells CAN scribe, Musa Asake

Sequel to the address given by the General Secretary of CAN, Dr Musa Asake after the body rose from an emergency meeting in Abuja where it accused President Buhari of serving only the interest of the Fulanis, the Presidency has now told Musa Asake to face his religious calling and not to meddle into politics. The Presidency also debunked the allegation that President Muhammadu Buhari has violated some provisions of the nation’s constitution.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu in a statement in Abuja while reacting to the statement credited to the CAN scribe where he was said to have accused the President of violating the provisions of the constitution said that there was no aspect of the constitution that had been breached by the President.

Shehu in the statement said, “Our attention has been drawn to reports of a press conference by General Secretary of Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Dr. Musa Asake in which he passed a judgement on the constitutionality of certain actions of the Muhammadu Buhari administration. Unfortunately, he could (not) cite any valid cases of constitutional violations. President Muhammadu government poses no threat to the country’s democracy and Constitution. There are no cases of any violation of our sacred constitution and there will be none under this President. The respected religious leader should stick to his religious duties and leave politics for politicians.”
