Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, has said President Bola Tinubu did not abuse the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), dismissing claims that the President disrespected the Church following a recent meeting with its members.
“This is not the first time that the Catholic Church is going to President Tinubu.
Those discussions were made by Archbishop Danagoro of Kaduna State, the current president of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference, and not even Onaiyekan,” Kalu stated.
“For me, Tinubu is not an enemy to the Catholic bishops; he’s one of their best friends and I don’t feel insulted.
Anytime they have asked for an audience, he has given it to them because any president dodging Catholic bishops is dodging himself, because what politicians cannot tell the president, the Catholic bishops will say it,” he added.
