Muslim Parliament urges Nigerians to vote out Jonathan.

This is mere hypocrisy. Talking of corruption and insecurity without condemning Boko Haram? Who is deceiving who?



"The Muslim Parliament has advised Nigerians
not to repeat the “mistake” of the 2011
elections that was responsible for bringing the
present leadership at the national level.
According to the parliament, the present
leadership has within its period of
stewardship brought corruption, insecurity,
impunity and breakdown of law and order,
among others, to the country.
“Within the period, the nation has witnessed
corruption in monumental dimensions in all
sectors of the economy, insecurity bedevilled
the nation, impunity and breakdown of law
and order, just to mention a few.”
A statement signed by the Chairman of
Bauchi State Muslims Parliament, Imam
Rabi’u Shehu, and made available to
journalists on Thursday, appealed to the
electorate to elect candidates of impeccable
character and requisite experience in good
governance, selfless service to humanity and
sense of patriotism to take the nation out of
its present predicaments.
He opined that the federal government had
not adequately addressed the yearnings,
aspirations and expectations of Nigerians
especially in areas of security of lives and
property, freedom of rights, social well-being
and the safeguarding territorial integrity of the
community.
Shehu stated: “Religious organisations should
not relent in mobilisation and sensitisation of
their members, as imams and pastors in
various mosques and churches should lead
their congregations in the prayers for peaceful
elections, unity of the nation and emergence
of leaders who have the interest of the nation
in their heart.”
The chairman, while drawing the attention of
the people to the importance and challenges
the 2015 elections portend for the survival of
the nation as a corporate entity, said only
voting for candidates with proven integrity,
unblemished records of service and pedigree
for achievements and deliverance will turn the
fortunes of the nations around.
Shehu commiserated with the victims of the
calamities occasioned by insecurity
prevalence in the country, and called for
prayers for an end to the dastardly inhuman
atrocities across the nation, and for
boundless peace to rein in the society.
