Bishops at unveiling of APC vice presidential candidate, Shettima, not CAN members – Bayo Adedeji    

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has denied participation in the unveiling of the vice-presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Kashim Shettima, in Abuja on Wednesday.

The National Public Relations Officer of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Bayo Adedeji, in a brief statement dismissed the viral video showing the attendance of some “pastors and bishops” at the APC unveiling event in Abuja.

Adedeji declared: “Let them name the CAN officials that attended the programme and their offices.

“If they could use 2017 photos to claim that some bishops visited Senator Shettima and lied that Pastor E. A. Adeboye had endorsed them, they could do anything.

“Our position on Muslim-Muslim ticket is irreversible. Anybody can claim to be anything, but one thing is clear, CAN was not part of the unveiling programme of Shettima.”
