Following the Arewa calls for the arrest of Clergyman, Bishop Kukah, over his Christmas day message, Senator Dino Melaye reacted.
“Arrest or try to embarrass Bishop Kukah and we will prove to you that Government is not owned by you”
Bishop Kukah had said during his sermon on Christmas day that there would have been a coup if a non-northern muslim president practiced nepotism like Buhari.
It appears the Arewa Youth Consultative can not stomach such statement therefore called for Bishop Kukah arrest and prosecution
See Bishop Kukah full statement below.
“This government owes the nation an explanation as to where it is headed as we seem to journey into darkness.
“The spilling of this blood must be related to a more sinister plot that is beyond our comprehension. Are we going to remain hogtied by these evil men or are they gradually becoming part of a larger plot to seal the fate of our country?
“President Buhari deliberately sacrificed the dreams of those who voted for him to what seemed like a programme to stratify and institutionalise northern hegemony. He has pursued this self-defeating and alienating policy at the expense of greater national cohesion.
“Every honest Nigerian knows that there is no way any non-Northern Muslim President could have done a fraction of what President Buhari has done by his nepotism and gotten away with it.
“There would have been a military coup a long time ago or we would have been at war. The President may have concluded that Christians will do nothing and will live with these actions.
“He may be right and we Christians cannot feel sorry that we have no pool of violence to draw from or threaten our country. However, God does not sleep. We can see from the inexplicable dilemma of his North.”
