Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Bishop Matthew
Kukah, on Friday, cited the poor governance in the country as his only
challenge.
Kuka, who celebrated his 70th birth anniversary on
Wednesday, spoke when he featured on Arise TV programme, Morning Show.
According to him, Nigerians are governed by some
personalities who have no passion and interest in moving the country forward.
He said, “I would have said I have no regret but the only regret I have outside and inside this country is to see how a nation with such incredible human being ruled by people who are lacking the passion and commitment to place this country in where it ought to be.”
Speaking on his continued agitation for better governance,
the Bishop said, “My energy is from the street of Nigeria, the ordinary people
I see whether they are Christian or Muslim.
“I have with the sense of modesty, put a little scholarship
in my years of priesthood. Focusing of citizens and how we can change the lives
of the people”.
The popular clergy who was in 2021, appointed by the Head of
Vatican city, Holy Father Pope Francis as a member of the Dicastery for the
Promotion of Human Integral Development, is known for constantly speaking to
authority on the state of the nation.
Recall that the bishop had a few months ago asked President
Muhammadu Buhari to reveal the names of those sponsoring the Boko Haram
insurgents causing havoc in several parts of the country.
