The Christians, under the aegis of the Northern Christian
Leaders Eagle-Eye Forum, led by Pastor Aminchi Habu, yesterday in Abuja endorsed
the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate for March 28 polls and
also presented him a Bible to prepare him for the ‘new journey’. Shortly after
the presentation Buhari spoke to news men where he said this was not the first
time he would be accepting a Bible, and the only reason they have been trying
to paint him as a religious fanatic was because of the coming elections.
“This is not the first time I am accepting Holy Bible publicly;
this is not the first time. It is not even the second or third time. All these
problems people are making because of religion are just of recent time and
dimension. We, both Christians and Muslims, have been leading this country and
there was no religious problem.
“It is just now that somebody is creating these problems for
us. I hope God will look after it. I told you this is not the second or third
time I will be accepting Bible. This one (acceptance) is special because of the
leadership of the church that made the presentation, that is the only
difference. Otherwise, I do receive Bibles, they are in my libraries,” he said.
