Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, on Wednesday faulted the notice to 'either apologize or leave Sokoto' issued by the Sokoto-based Muslim Solidarity Forum to Matthew Kukah, the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto.
Shehu in a statement titled “Father Kukah must be allowed to practise his faith and politics,” said the forum’s call was wrong because it was not in line with the nation’s constitution. He also noted that Kukah had offended many with his remarks against Government, adding that groups such as the Muslim Solidarity Forum must, however, uphold the country’s multi-religious principles while individuals like Kukah must respect the feelings of other Nigerians in his utterances.
