Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, said the All Progressives Congress Muslim-Muslim ticket is doomed for failure.

According to The Punch, Dogara made the prediction on Tuesday while delivering a keynote address at a summit tagged, ‘Meet The Church’.

The summit was organised by the Nigeria National Christian Coalition with the theme, ‘The role of the church in nation-building.’

Dogara an APC chieftain who had always chided his Party and its leadership for floating same-faith ticket said his party can’t rebuild the nation if it negates the fundamentals of nation-building.

He said, “In their convoluted posturing, they have placed state-building ahead of nation-building; a task never before achieved in history and we need no seer to tell us that such an endeavour is guaranteed to end in failure. No divided people have ever built any civilisation.

“I am so elated that today’s church in Nigeria has shaken off the beast of the complacency of the past into fire by speaking up and resisting measures adopted by some political platforms that will hamper nation building.

“In a manner that negated the fundamentals of nation building, such as shared identity, values and visions, the APC adopted the same-faith ticket in a country that has never attained nationhood.”

According to him, long before the adoption of the same faith ticket, the church had warned against the party through the Christian Association of Nigeria, Catholic Secretariat, ECWA and so many other Christian organisations.

Dogara said, “These warnings were not only ignored but dismissed in one fell swoop by the APC presidential candidate who strangely believes that he can build a strong, secure and viable nation-state without first forging a shared identity, vision and values for our people; thereby enabling us transit from citizens of a country into a nation of people with strong shared identity and values.

“To demonstrate that the church is right, it is not alone in condemning the same-faith ticket. Other prominent Islamic clerics and Muslim leaders have also spoken in the same light.”
