President-elect, Bola Tinubu
A group under the auspices of Concern Christians of Nigeria in Kaduna State has asked the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, to reserve the position of the Secretary to Government of the Federation (SGF) as well as the Chief of Staff (CoS) to the President for Christians while forming his government on May 29.
This is coming as the dust over the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket appears to have died down.
According to the group, since the president-elect and the vice president-elect are both Muslims, it is imperative for the two positions to go to Christians for the sake of fairness, equity and justice.
This was contained in a statement by the Leader of the group, Rt. Hon. John Audu-Kwaturu, titled, ‘Presidential Election: Christian Group Tasks Tinubu on Inclusive, Equitable Appointments,’ issued in Kaduna on Thursday.
The group said in the next political dispensation under the Tinubu government, there should be more appointments such that Christians would have a sense of belonging in the country.
