Bishops of the Pentecostal denomination in Northern Nigeria have praised President Bola Tinubu for the recent appointment of Service Chiefs, which they claim reflects the aggressive measures made to ensure that all of the country’s geopolitical regions are progressed.
Speaking on behalf of the Body of Pentecostal Church leaders from the North, Bishop Jonas Katung the founder and President of The Living Stone Church Assembly, Jos, Plateau State said in less than one month in office, President Tinubu has performed creditably well and lived up to the expectations of Northern Pentecostal Bishops and Pastors.
The Bishop also praised Senator George Akume’s nomination as Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) and Nuhu Ribadu’s appointment as National Security Adviser (NSA), both of whom are from Northern Nigeria, and emphasized that there is a spread across the regions of the nation.
According to him, “When we met President Tinubu in Abuja as a body of Northern Bishops and Pastors shortly before the 2023 Presidential election, he gave us his word on purposeful leadership if he wins the Presidential election, and now he is providing that much-needed quality leadership to Nigerians. Going by the performance of President Tinubu in less than one month in office, Nigerians should be expecting more heart-touching political and economic policies that would turn around the fortunes of Nigerians in the next four years.”
He charged President Tinubu to remain focused and “select people of sound characters” into his cabinet and urged Nigerians to give the President the needed support to “provide the right leadership to citizens.”
