The Christians Association of Nigeria, CAN, yesterday, gave former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, seven days within which to make public the identity of the person that donated a private jet to its president, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, or risk being exposed.
CAN, which described El-Rufai as a liability in the country’s political system, said if he was broke, he should beg Jonathan for a job, rather than engaging in blackmail.
El-Rufai, weekend, described Pastor Oritsejafor as the chief propagandist of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and one who lacked credibility.
But CAN in a statement in Abuja by the Head of TEKAN/ECWA Block in CAN, Rev. Emmanuel Dziggau and National Director (Research, Planning & Strategy), Elder Sunday Oibe, who gave El-Rufai the ultimatum, admonished former Head of State, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), to dissociate himself from people like El-Rufai, who would use him to gain political relevance.
The statement reads in part: “It is laughable for an individual like El-Rufai looking for relevance to be alluding to Ayo’s credibility. If Pastor Ayo doesn’t have credibility, who else have credibility in Nigeria of today? Is it El-Rufai?
”The fact that El-Rufai in his tweets abused our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, and Christians ignored him doesn’t give him the impetus to make unguarded comments about Pastor Ayo who is the leader of Christians in Nigeria.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

CAN should have some dignity as Christians
ReplyDeleteCAN should prove him a lier if Pastor Ayo never had private jet. Nigerian pastors getting richer than politians/businessmen while many youths are out of job and millions of Nigerians wallowing in poverty. What a wicked generatn n hopeless christians!
ReplyDeletePls is CAN a political party? If no why are they romancing with politicians? Christ advised christian not to be part of the world. Yet they constantly involve themselves in politics seeking for monetary favour from politicians. Even some roman catholic church premises are used as polling centres during election. Fulfilling the prophecies of the harlot(false religion) meddling with the wild beast(world governments) for their own destruction.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe CAN made such shameless utterances
ReplyDeleteI am a pentecostal. Unfortunatly, CAN is un-christian. Take example frm Pope Francis
ReplyDeleteCAN, and Nigerian politicians. By the way who buy the jet?
ReplyDeletereasons why the catholic church pulled out from CAN is gradually unveiling..... we keep watch
ReplyDeleteI think what CAN should be bothered with is what it claim that El rufai said over Jesus Christ, not his comments over who bought luxury Jet or mansion for its chairman as is isn't the first time that govt of the day has been inducing there loyalist with all sorts of gift some Ma Na Oil BLOCK
ReplyDeleteI think CAN should just focus on its primary assignment.Than protecting somebody that collected egunje, or uses' beko money to buy for himself luxury jet.Abeg mek una allow Nasiru be.
El-Rufai need job.
ReplyDeleteU re ryt my Man! What re pastors doing wit private jets worth billions of naira in a country where a large percentage of ur members can ill afford three-square meals daily? Ur Jesus Christ never preached expensive lifestyles and neglect of the poor while He was alive. You (Oritsejafor) called the insults to yourself! So let El-Rufa'i be.
ReplyDeleteThere is quite difference between christianity and the blood sucking cult called Islam. if christian say any bitter words about Islam hell will roll, but with christianity(JESUS CHRIST) nobody cares cos our God can fight for himself.Elrufai is a failure and he will continues to fail.nobody can fight God, NO christian can insult Sultan, so Ayo ignore the idiot.
ReplyDeleteXtians have no directions. they are lost
ReplyDeleteYou fool even your imam knows that JESUS CHRIST is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE. how then they are Xtians lost? Can you tell me exactly where you will go when you die? even your Mohammed testify he dont even know. so who is lost here?. how many miracles does your mohammed performed?.
ReplyDeleteMoslem has directions of initiating wars all over the world. just check out how their directions is making them the problems of this world. JUst remove moslem in the map of world then i will show you directions to ever lasting peace.
ReplyDeleteSee fools arguing. I thought you should cover your heads is shame that your supreme leader in the person of Ayo Oristejafor is making a very nonsensical statement to which even a lad of two can read the menace of an ungodly aura attached to it. While I can't say CAN is at fault, I can confidently say Oristejafor is certainly anti-christ like. Day by day, he has proven that he needs the world more than he needs salvation. Well, I am not supprised at all, given that the part of the country where he came from and all the attrocities that have continue to plunder his origin, cost him not a second of worry. He has never muster courage to call his foot soldeirs to order, rather he subtly encourage them till they become bolder and an evangelist became a victim. Pastor Ayo Oristejafor is a villain, the earlier he is seen as one, the better it is for christiandom.
