“It is very irresponsible of Tinubu to take his political survival over the stability and peace of Nigeria.
“For Tinubu now to be given the ticket and turn around to do what he couldn’t achieve in 2015 despite opposition from Catholics and other Christians leaders is extremely irresponsible.
“We sat down in Abuja and strategized, and we concluded that he should not take a Muslim as running mate. He (Tinubu) threw away the report.
“My conscience will not allow me to campaign for Tinubu. I am a member of CAN, I cannot deny CAN. I remain in APC. But I will take the survival of my Country first over political considerations.
“We cannot work for such a man. I will oppose Christian-Christian ticket because I am invested in stability of this Country. A Christian-Christian ticket will be insensitive to Muslims of this Country. The Country is evenly divided among Muslims and Christians. So any government that is Muslim-Muslim will be illegitimate and will never gain respect of Christians.
