The Metropolitan Bishop of the Calabar Archdiocese, His Grace, Most, Rev. Joseph Ekuwem has given reasons President Muhammadu Buhari should not seek re-election.


Speaking to journalists on Sunday shortly after a 3-day Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), the Cleric lamented the senseless killing that cut across Nigeria.

“There is no section of the constitution that forbids Mr. President from seeking re-election but he can only seek for re-election if he is able to stop the senseless killings on-going in several parts of the country, otherwise he should not run again.


“Besides, if this is what we call change, that was being trumpeted, and Mr. President is not able to defend and secure life in Nigeria, the Nigerian Bishops say resign,” he stated.

He said that the Bishops condemned the incessant killings of innocent citizens in some part of country, noting that the church had written letters to the federal Government to address the situation with no further delay.

“If the President sees himself as lacking the capacity to handle the situation, he should resign before the situation escalates to war. As a church, we are still angry with the development,” he added.
