Archbishop Emeritus of the Catholic Archdiocese of Abuja, John Cardinal Onaiyekan, has criticised president Bola Tinubu over his ‘all is fair in politics’ comment.
Featuring in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’ on Friday, Cardinal Onaiyekan said the president’s comment is incorrect.
DAILY POST recalls that the president made the comment when the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria, CBCN, paid him a courtesy visit at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
“All is fair in politics, and there are equal opportunities. INEC is neutral, they have never intimidated anybody. If political opponents are crying wolf, maybe they are afraid of their own shadows,” Tinubu had said
But the Catholic Bishop differed saying, “The position of Mr President came very clearly in that statement that he made: ‘In politics, all is fair.’ Is that true? If that is what politics is—that in politics everything can be done provided you win elections.
