Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has warned Christians ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Obasanjo said: “I think it’s the mistake of the past, particularly in the Christendom, that we say politics is not for the righteous.”

“Now, if we take the righteous away from politics, and leave politics to the unrighteous, the unrighteous will smear the righteous with the unrighteousness that they will carry into politics and will have no where to go.”

“In the next election, if we do not watch it, it may make or break Nigeria, but I pray that it will make Nigeria.”

“I appreciate the remarks about CAN President, his time as CAN President will bring peace and unity for Nigeria. Sultan of Sokoto had spoken about you to me personally, and, I must say, I am impressed. With you and Sultan who is already singing your praises, things will take a turn-around if you can work together.”

“If you stand on the truth, stand for justice and equity, then politicians will not be able to mess us around and I will say it with all sense of responsibility now, if we do not watch it, the politicians will wreck this country and we would all regret it.”
