Published by

Plateau State Governor and Director General of Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Organisation, Simon Lalong, has enjoined Nigerians to leave religion out of politics and embrace development saying the current challenges in the country were not a result of religion.

Lalong who stated this on Thursday while addressing a cheering crowd at the Yakubu Gowon Airport, Heipang in Jos Plateau State promised to work assiduously for the success of the APC presidential election in 2023.

On Muslim/Muslim ticket, Lalong declared thus:” Campaigning for Tinubu/Shettima Presidential election will not be a new thing for us in Plateau State, it is not a difficult task at all. It was the same difficulty we faced in 2015 when some people said we will not win the election because we are in a Muslim party but we won that election.

“All I want is for us to cement our relationship, Nigeria is one nation. The challenges that we have are not from the Muslims or the Christians, we have common challenges and our duty is to unite the people for development.”

He advised Nigerians to leave religion out of politics and embrace development, adding that the current challenges in the country were not a result of religion.
