CBCN Endorses Tinubu for 2027 Election Amid Peace Call
The Charismatic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) has officially endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the upcoming 2027 presidential election. During the Grand Finale of the 2026 Synod of the CBCN and the International Communion of Charismatic Archbishops, Bishops and Apostles (ICCABA) held in Abuja, Honourable Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, called on church leaders to leverage their influence to foster peace, national unity, and responsible citizenship as the elections approach.
Idris emphasized that maintaining Nigeria's unity requires collective effort beyond government action, including the role of religious leaders. He reaffirmed the Federal Government's commitment to protecting religious freedom and highlighted recent security achievements, including the elimination of approximately 1,000 terrorist elements in early 2026 and the rescue of 308 abducted Nigerians.
Idris urged religious leaders to promote social cohesion and responsible citizenship, warning against divisive narratives during the electoral process.
