2019 PRESIDENCY: FAYOSE IS OUR MAN SAYS C.A.N.

2019 presidency: CAN roots for Fayose

— 2nd November 2017

… Says he’s leader Nigeria deserves

From ODINAKA BENEDICT EZEOKA writing for ODOGWU MEDIA.

The Christain Association of Nigeria (CAN) has, threw its weight behind Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose’s 2019 presidential ambition.

CAN said Fayose is a man that “will move this country forward.”

In an  October 16, 2017 letter signed by CAN National General Secretary, Rev. Dr. Musa Asake, with reference number CAN/GS/IGMAILS/02/017, a copy of which was obtained by ODOGWU MEDIA, the religious body urged Fayose not to be distracted by people who have nothing good to offer the country.

“Unarguably, you have done what many of our politicians, Christians in particular, do not have the courage to do. This is why I agree with you, hook, line and sinker, when in your speech you said inter alia, ‘You are all witnesses to my commitment to this party in this difficult period, where I have demonstrated uncommon courage that makes me stand out as capable of leading our country at this time.’ Your Excellency, because you are known to doing great in your leadership and that you will move this country forward, the enemies of progress are not happy with your declaration and are not sleeping well.

“The devil will use many, even those who might be closer to you, to try to create lies, false accusation, spread rumours, just to distract people from seeing the good leadership qualities that are in you.

In times like this, if honest and courageous leaders like you are not careful, this can bring discouragement. Be assured that the Lord who has led you in your leadership as the governor of Ekiti State at this time, will never let you down.”

Your critics have the right to say whatever they want, that is to be expected anyway. No leader should expect applause from his critics.”

CAN added; “The leader that Nigeria really needs is the one that shuns the cosmetic approach because he knows it is superficial and the ‘quick fix it’ approach because he knows it is temporary. The country needs a leader who has the courage to face problems honestly, the wisdom to understand them, the strength to do something about them and the faith to trust God to do the rest.”

The association also commended the courage and boldness of Fayose and noted that Fayose’s presidential declaration on September 28, 2017 in Abuja, could only be done by somebody with uncommon boldness and courage.

They added that Nigeria’s problems could only be solved by leaders who walk with God, and described Fayose as a man who always put his trust in God
