Kaduna CAN declares support for Gov. Sani, says ‘we’ll pray for your success’
Kaduna State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Caleb Ma’aji, has assured Governor Uba Sani of the support and prayers of the Christian community.
The CAN chairman gave the assurance at an Iftra dinner which was hosted by Mr Sani for the clergy and other senior Christian leaders at Sir Kashim Ibrahim House on Sunday.
According to him, the community will offer its prayers to the governor because he has given them a sense of belonging.
Mr Ma’aji commended the governor for his policy of inclusivity, which seeks to carry all segments of Kaduna State along so that each could contribute its quota in developing the state.
He said: “The difference between this administration and the last one is clear.”
According to him, Mr Sani’s mode of governance is a departure from the previous administration, and, “this has given hope to the Christians in Kaduna State”.
Mr Maáji promised that, “your leadership has become our prayer point. We will never stop praying for you until your good becomes better and your better becomes the best’’.
The CAN Chairman recalled that in 2023, the governor attended the Christmas Carol for the first time in Kaduna State, and he promised to attend subsequent ones.
“Last year, he fulfilled his promise as he attended the Christmas Carol for the second time. You showed us love and even supported us. We thank you very much,’’ he added.
The CAN chairman disclosed that Mr Sani even promised that next year’s carol will be his own because he wants, “to eat rice and drink Fanta with his people”.
In his remarks, the chairman of CAN in the 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory, Rev Joseph Hayab, prayed that, ‘’may God keep us alive to reciprocate the governor’s kind gestures”.
Mr Hayab promised to sensitise Christian community not to be confused when the [election] time comes, stressing that the governor has changed the narrative about Kaduna by his policy of inclusivity.
