Young Christian Democrats Back Hashim for Northern Christian Security in 2027 Elections

General News1 min read

The Young Christian Democrats (YCD) coordinator, Ezekiel Dinfa, has endorsed Dr. Joel Gbenga Hashim as the best candidate for Northern Christians in the 2027 elections. Dinfa highlighted Hashim's ability to protect Christians in the face of Islamist extremism in Northern Nigeria.

He emphasized Hashim's track record as a fair-minded democrat who can unite both Northern and Southern Christians, drawing parallels to General Yakubu Gowon's unifying role in Nigeria's history. Dinfa's endorsement comes in response to President Bola Tinubu's recent statements in support of Northern Christians' rights.

The focus on Hashim's candidacy aims to address the security concerns of Northern Christian minorities and promote religious freedom and unity in the region.
