Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, says politics has turned the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential running mate, Rotimi Amaechi, into an emergency defender of the Catholic Church.
Posting on his X handle, Olayinka said Amaechi and his likes
see everything as an opportunity to clamour for votes ahead of the 2027
elections.
He wrote: “Politics has now turned Rotimi Amaechi into an
emergency defender of the Catholic Church.
“These clowns see everything as an opportunity for votes.
Waiting for Pitobi too.
“Wike Helped him in 2007 and 2011. Wike defeated him in
2015, 2019, and 2023. Who’s he?”
In an interview on Channels Television yesterday, Amaechi
had accused President Bola Tinubu of insulting the Catholic Church following
the Presidency’s comment directed at the Archbishop Emeritus of Abuja, John
Cardinal Onaiyekan.
The war of words started after Tinubu met with the Catholic
Bishop Conference of Nigeria led by Onaiyekan at the Presidential Villa in
Abuja.
The Catholic bishops had raised concerns over the state of
the nation.
Onaiyekan said that Tinubu rejected their assessment of the
country’s current situation.
Onaiyekan’s comment after the meeting ignited condemnation
from the presidency.
