Breaking: Nigerians are suffering, Bishop Kukah tells Tinubu, APC leaders
From Romanus Ugwu, Abuja
Bishop of Kaduna Dioceses, Bishop Matthew Kukah, has urged President Bola Tinubu and the leadership of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) to reduce the price of fuel to ameliorate the suffering of Nigerians, emphasising that there is serious hunger in the land.
He spoke at the formal unveiling of the APC Progressive Institute in Abuja on Friday, urging the political leaders to urgently find a way of reducing hunger and suffering of the masses in the land.
Bishop Kukah equally charged Nigerian political leaders to graduate from patronising marabout to embracing scientific approach to administering the country.
According to him; “I have always said that I am not a politician but I am political. I am not a member of the APC. If Labour Party invites me, I will go, if it is the PDP that invites me, I will also go. One thing I will appeal to politicians is to write your biography so that the younger generation will appreciate the mistakes you have made.
“The Institute will help the political leaders to change the rules of engagement. Once they are elected, spiritualists, ritualists will dictate their activities. I want to urge Nigerian politicians to move from marabout to scientific approach to administering the country.
“As I commend the APC for this feat and I am happy that the political leaders are here and I want to say that Nigerians are hungry. You must fund a way of reducing the prices of fuel to reduce the suffering in the country,” he appealed.
