Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, the spokesperson of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), referred to the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the All Progressive Congress Presidential Candidate as a hoax.
Baba-Ahmed bemoaned the way Nigerians had allowed politicians to undermine their religious beliefs.
The NEF spokesman said politicians use religion to overthrow Nigeria’s democratic system while featuring on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
Baba-Ahmed stated, “We had a Muslim president for eight years in this country. The North has never been as bad as it. It did nothing to the North.
“What did El-Rufai do for the Muslims? He demolished their houses on the very last day he was leaving, 95 per cent of the houses he demolished belonged to Muslims. So of what value has the Muslim-Muslim ticket been to them?
“Muslim-Muslim ticket is a fraud; politicians have poisoned our faith; the earlier we open our eyes the better. They are destroying our political system by bringing faith into it.
“They are deceiving the people into believing that the faith of the people into thinking that the faith of a politician represents a plus or minus to you, it doesn’t.
“For all you know, you could be a Muslim and not pray five times a day, you could be a Christian and have horrible habits.”
