A group under the aegis of Northern Christian
Leaders Eagle Eyes Forum (NCLEEF) have alleged
that its leaders have been receiving death threats
since they endorsed the All Progressives Congress,
APC’s, presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari.
According to the chairman of the Forum, Pastor
Aminchi Habu, who addressed a news conference in
Kaduna on Friday, President Goodluck Jonathan’s
tenure in the past six years has been a huge
disappointment to Nigerians and the Christian
community in particular.
Pastor Habu said it was based on this that the
Christian Forum decided to dump Jonathan and
endorse Buhari who they believe could tackle the
problem of insecurity in the country.
“Our decision to endorse Buhari was informed by
our commitment to build a free, fair and a secular
society where the inheritance should be justice to
all.
“After the endorsement, our members, especially
the chairman of this forum, have continued to
receive threatening phone calls and text messages,
calling us a sell-out group who have abandoned a
Christian candidate in the person of President
Goodluck Jonathan,” Habu said.
