Vice president Namadi Sambo has urged electorates while
speaking in Minna not to allow anyone deceive them, by saying APC is more of a Muslim
party than PDP. According to him, PDP has more Muslim leaders than APC, and if
that’s the yardstick, they have an upper hand.
But then, he went forward and said, Nigeria is however for both Muslims
and Christians. His words;
“When people bring the issue of religion to deceive you, our
party has more Muslims than APC. Therefore if this (is) the yardstick, we then
have an edge.
"Our chairman is a Muslim; the Director General of our
campaign is a Muslim likewise. I Namadina Namadina Sambo is a Muslim. It is
only our presidential candidate that is a Christian.
"In APC, their chairman is a Christian, their Campaign
Director General is a Christian and the Vice President is a Pastor. Now let me
ask you, which between the parties has more Muslims?”
He however added that, despite that Nigeria belongs to both religions; “Nigeria belongs to both Christians and Muslims. During Tafawa-Balewa, he worked with Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe a Christian, during Shagari he worked with Alex Ekweme, Obasanjo with Atiku, Late Umaru Yaradua with Dr. Goodluck Jonathan and now Goodluck with Namadi."
