Don’t vote for APC - Bishop Mathew Ndagoso warns Christians

Bishop of Kaduna Catholic Archdiocese, Most Reverend Mathew Ndagoso has cautioned Christians against supporting and voting for parties that field same-faith tickets in the 2023 elections.

He made this known at an event in Kaduna on Monday, November 21, 2022.

According to him, Nigerians should vote for a candidate who values Nigeria’s religious and cultural differences.

He described the country's religious, social and cultural diversities as a blessing.

He said, “If any candidate or political party dismiss other peoples sensitivity, I think they are sending a message to them. Any candidate who does not care about our religious sensitivity, why should we vote the person into power?

“It is a waste of votes. Anybody who aspire to lead this country must give every Nigerian a sense of belonging and what is happening now is not giving every Nigerian a sense of belonging.

“Nigeria is a very diverse country, we all come from different cultural and religious backgrounds and our diversity are not a curse but a blessing from God.

“All we need are leaders who will be able to manage and harness these diversities as to enrich our country. Therefore, the kind of leader Nigeria needs is somebody who has the ability to manage our differences and bring everybody together and give everyone a sense of belonging.”
