Tinubu preaches religious tolerance in Nigeria
The President made the call during the burial ceremony of Nana Lydia Yilwatda, the mother of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, Prof. Nantawe Yilwatda, held in Jos, Plateau State.
He preached religious tolerance and charged clerics at the event to champion peace as key to fostering national unity.
Tinubu said: “Hate is never an option for us. I was born into Islam and have remained a Muslim, while my wife is a pastor. She prays for me, and there has never been any conflict between us. I have never tried to persuade her to convert.
“This must be an opportunity to promote the unity needed. To the clergy, thank you for the promotion of peace. Hate is not an option. We must love one another. Nobody determines what God has ordained. We are praying to the same God. We are answerable to Him.”
In his remark, the Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, thanked the President for attending the burial of the APC chairman’s mother in the state.
