The State of the Christian Community in Maiduguri remains in perplexity over  an alleged  statement ascribed to the  Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Borno State chapter ,Bishop Mohammed Willians Naga,  founder/Head,  Pentecostal Belivers Covenant Church (PBCC) in Borno state over an alleged commendation of the choosing of Sen. Kassim Shettima as running mate to Tinubu. Meanwhile, according to viral social media report, Bishop Naga was quoted to have commended  Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress, APC Presidential flagbearer in the forthcoming 2023 general elections for the choice of Sen. Kashim Shettima, former Borno state Governor and a serving Senator representing Borno Central at the National Assembly as running mate.

According to Vanguard whose source was unverified on the  reported noted that, Bishop Naga was saying that the choice of Shettima is a well conceived deal, noting however, that under Shettima , who was at the helm of affairs as governor in  Borno state between 2011 and 2019 was a fruitful gesture for christians. Some parts of the alleged statement from Naga reads, ” My brothers, those who are not from Borno State may not know, but you and I know better. In the history of Borno State, there is no Governor that has been fair to the Christian Community in this State as much as Governor Kashim Shettima.

“I am saying this in the presence of God Almighty and this is nothing but the truth. Governor Shettima, in the history of Borno, is the only Governor that has sponsored highest number of Christian Pilgrims every year since 2011.

“I am speaking boldly without fear or favour because as CAN Chairman I do not receive salary or kobo from Government or any institution, but the facts need to be told. This Governor has shown compassion to the Christian Community.”

Meanwhile, reacting to the statement on Monday in Maiduguri, the CAN Chairman, Bishop Naga debunked the news and that he never commended Muslim-Muslim tickets, that the statement making around was the interview he granted to some Journalists on 3rd April, 2017 while Senator Kashim Shettima was a Governor of the State.

According to Vanguard News, The Bishop expressed shock that an acclaimed and unprofessional Journalist will mischievously lifted such an interview, portrayed it as if was granted on Monday being 11th of July, 2022, surprisingly prove a point for his paymaster.Consequently upon this unwholesome development, Bishop Naga said, he has summoned a meeting for all the CAN representatives in the state as well as the National body which comes up tomorrow Tuesday 12th July 2022 , after which, CAN will issue a statement or its position regarding the story. “I granted no interview to anybody on Monday 11th July 2022. It was a mischievous propaganda, seeking cheap popularity on my character,” Bishop Naga said
