Former
Minister of the FCT Malam Nasir el-Rufai, Monday took on the Christian
Association of Nigeria (CAN), which had last week criticised him over
his irreverent re-tweet on Jesus Christ and warned him against further
making such derogatory commentaries or else, he would risk the wrath of
Christians.
El-Rufai
in a tweet, dismissed CAN’s reaction, describing the umbrella body for
Christians as a “propaganda arm of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP).”
He also decried the way national president of CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor is running the organization.
“The CAN under Oritsejafor has become the propaganda arm of a looting government and the PDP. They represent themselves and can threaten no one,” he said in the tweet.

In
a related development, El-Rufai, in another tweet yesterday that was an
obvious reaction to Reuben Abati’s criticism, said: “I neither respond
to threats nor reply bigots. I do not respond to cowards either – who
write fiction about people without mentioning names.”
