Reno Omokri, the former aide to
ex president Goodluck Jonathan has criticized pastors under the auspices of the
Arewa Pastors Non-denominational Initiative for Peace in Nigeria, who paid
President Muhammadu Buhari a visit on Thursday.
The pastors during their visit to
the president accused their colleagues of inciting violence and working against
President Buhari.
Leader of the group, Bishop John
Richard, endorsed Buhari for a second term owing to his achievements in
security.
Reacting, Omokri berated the
pastors for supporting Buhari yet failed to question the President on the
whereabouts of a detained Christian Dapchi girl,Leah Sharibu and the killings
of Northern Christians.
The former presidential aide on
his Twitter page wrote, “You call yourselves Northern Pastors, you visited
Buhari, endorsed him, praised him and failed to even say one thing about
#LeahSharibu or the plight of Northern Christians?
” Did Jesus not say ‘by their
fruits you shall know them’? May God never allow such pastors lead His
children!
Meanwhile, the Christian
Association of Nigeria, CAN, had dissociated itself from Arewa Pastors Peace
Initiative, Nigeria, APPIN.
They expressed disappointed that
a group of people who claimed to be Pastors visited the President without
asking for the freedom of Leah Sharibu and over 100 Chibok girls held captive
by Boko Haram.
