LEGIT
The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Reverend Father Mathew Kukah, has sent an important message to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The cleric charged President Tinubu to end the killings of Nigerians by whatever means or name.
Kukah, in his Christmas message made available to The Punch, in Sokoto on Monday, December 25, said Tinubu must use his wealth of experience to end the ugly instrumentalisation of religious, ethnic or regional identities.
Speaking on the aftermath of the 2023 elections, Kukah called on leaders on every front to, as a matter of urgency, find healing as soon as possible.
He explained that this was not an easy job for any nation, and there were no shortcuts to nation-building.
The man of God, however, said the last few years did test the nation’s collective resolve to stay united. He said: “Mr. President, Sir, congratulations and a happy Christmas. Now, you have what you prayed for, what you dreamt of, what you longed for.
