Reflect Nigeria’s diversity in your appointments, CAN urges Tinubu
The Christian Association of Nigeria on Tuesday advised President Bola Tinubu to ensure a balance in his appointment of security chiefs and other top political positions, stressing that this would assist in stabilising his administration.
According to the religious group, it would be crucial for the appointments to reflect the diversity of Nigeria, with qualified individuals from different religious and ethnic backgrounds given the opportunity to serve in the positions and to reflect his inaugural speech.
The President of CAN, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, stated these in a statement issued in Abuja.
“The Christian Association of Nigeria again congratulates President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his assumption of office as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We recognise that he is taking office at a time when virtually all sectors of the country are yearning for attention, and we wish to advise the President to ensure a good balance in the appointment of security chiefs and other top political positions that will help stabilise his government.
“It is crucial that the appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria, and that qualified individuals from different religious and ethnic backgrounds are given the opportunity to serve in these positions.
“CAN acknowledges the importance of these appointments in ensuring the security and well-being of Nigerians. We, therefore, advise President Tinubu to take a proactive stance in ensuring that the appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria and that the best individuals are selected for these positions.
“Nigerians are looking forward to an administration that will address the injustices and unfairness of the past, and we hope that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will use the opportunity of these appointments to allay the fears of Nigerians.”
