2023 Presidency: Jonathan Finally Reveals His Position on APC’s Muslim-Muslim Ticket

The All Progressives Congress (APC)’s Muslim-Muslim ticket, according to Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, the country’s immediate past president, would eventually result in a breakdown in the representation of Nigeria’s religious diversity.

This was stated by Jonathan in an interview that was included in the book “My Time As Chaplain In Aso Rock,” which was released to the public on Tuesday, December 6, according to The Punch.

When Jonathan was in office, it was customary for the vice president to be a Muslim if the president was a Christian, and vice versa.

He said :

“When I took over as the vice president, the tradition then was that if the President were a Christian, the Vice would be a Muslim and vice versa.

“We have religious festivals in Nigeria and, of course, National Day, where there will be Jummah prayers and Christian prayers. “Nigerians are religious people, this is why I get worried about the issues of Muslim-Muslim or Christian-Christian ticket. Yes, Muslim-Muslim or Christian-Christian can run the state. But I always ask, ‘who will represent this other bloc whenever we come to the national days that we celebrate?”
