Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, has come under fire for making a ‘blasphemous statement’ while attacking the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi.
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that Tinubu accused the former Anambra state governor of being a serial betrayer during a campaign rally in Anambra earlier today.
According to Tinubu, who cited scripture, Obi denied Jesus Christ three times and failed to keep his promise to God.
He said:
Me, I am not afraid of anybody and I don’t worry. The man who left here he calls himself Peter Obi. We read in the Bible that before cock crows three times, he will deny Jesus Christ. He denied [Jesus], so how can he keep a promise to you if he cannot keep promise to God.
Some Nigerian accused the former governor of making a caricature of the scriptures, something according to them, he cannot do with the Quran.
