“Make Christian SGF, CoS”, Group advised Tinubu.
The President-elect, Bola Tinubu, has been urged by the Concerned Christians of Nigeria (CCN) in Kaduna State to set aside seats for Christians as Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) and Chief of Staff (CoS) to the President.
NewsReport indicate that the group contends that since both the President-elect and the Vice President-elect are Muslims, it is essential for the sake of fairness, equity, and justice that the two offices be filled by Christians.
This was contained in a statement by the leader of the group, John Audu-Kwaturu, titled “Presidential Election: Christian Group Tasks Tinubu on Inclusive, Equitable Appointments,” issued in Kaduna.
The group said: “In the next political dispensation under the Tinubu government, there should be more appointments such that Christians would have a sense of belonging in the country.”
“The presidency should be inclusive and fair. It is no longer news that the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, with Kashim Shattima, the Vice President-elect, are both from the same faith, which it has stir so much uproar within the political space in Nigeria.
“Thus, Christian communities are calling for fairness in terms of appointments into key positions in the incoming government.”
