The Christian Association of Nigeria, on Tuesday, urged President Bola Tinubu to ensure religious and ethnic balance in the appointment of security chiefs and other top political positions that would assist in stabilising his government.
According to CAN, it will be crucial for the appointments to reflect the diversity of Nigeria, adding that the President should appoint only competent hands.He said, “The Christian Association of Nigeria, again, congratulates President Bola Tinubu on his assumption of office as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“It is crucial that the appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria, and that qualified individuals from different religious and ethnic backgrounds are given the opportunity to serve in these positions. “CAN acknowledges the importance of these appointments in ensuring the security and well-being of Nigerians. We, therefore, advise President Tinubu to take a proactive stance in ensuring that the appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria and that the best individuals are selected for these positions.”
CAN said Nigerians were yearning for a government that would address the injustices and unfairness of the past. “We hope that President Bola Tinubu will use the opportunity of these appointments to allay the fears of Nigerians,” the Christian body added.All rights reserved.
