The Kwara State branch of the Christian Association of Nigeria has allegedly become divided over the endorsements of governorship candidates of two different political parties in the state by some of its members.
The crisis, which has divided the executive members of the association, has pitched two senior priests of the Church of Nigeria against each other.
Ibiyemi said that “The CAN executive did not take a position and we did not talk because we know that the two groups are Christians and they belong to different churches, we did not want to cause a division in CAN.” According to a statement personally signed by him, Amoo said, “The province comprising eight other respected Bishops that constituted the province wishes to dissociate themselves from the misleading and all ill calculated endorsement of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State by CAN.
