CAN gives El-Rufai 7 days to reveal source of Oritsejafor’s private jet

Controversial politician and former minister for the Federal Capital Terrotory, Mallam Nasir El Rufai, has been given a 7-day ultimatum by the Christian Association of Nigeria to reveal to Nigerians who gave the President of CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, his private jet or risk having his dirty character exposed to the public. The Christian Association also asked El-Rufai to go for a Psychiatric test.
 
This is in response to the interview the former minister granted Saturday Sun dated 14th September where he called the CAN president a bigot and a pretender. El-Rufai said:
"The CAN president is not a religious leader. He is a religious pretender. From the statements he has made, he is a bigot. He is an ethnic irredentist and no one should take him serious. It is sad that such a person is the head of CAN. He can say whatever he wants to say but we know who he is working for, we know who gave him his private jet. so why should we worry about someone like that. He has zero credibility".
See CAN's response to El-Rufai's comments after the cut...
 
In a statement signed by Rev Emmanuel Dziggau and Elder Sunday Oibe, CAN said "The fact that he can abuse Jesus Christ in his tweets and Christians ignored him does not give him the impetus to make unguarded comments about Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, who is the leader of the Christians in Nigeria"
 
They also noted that Christians respect other faiths and have never abused the Sultan of Sokoto or the President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Muhammad Saad Abubakar 111 who is the leader of the Muslims in Nigeria.

    1. CAN is one of the most irresponsible associations in Nigeria as of today, and they should cover their faces in shame (if they have any). How did giving his opinion about the gangster-like Oritsejafor become an abuse of Jesus christ?

      Even if Elrufai insults Jesus, do they have to attack Muslims because of that? Does it mean that he's speaking on behalf of all Muslims? What kind of agbero CAN without any sense of decorum is this? Do they want to start another religious conflict? I have said it my times; if corruption & tribalism do not destroy Nigeria, religion definitely will. This statement by CAN is proof that they're Jonathan's extension of PDP.

      Meanwhile, they left the all-important question Elrufai asked; where did he get the money to buy & maintain a private jet? The pope is driving a 20-year-old car but Nigerian pastors are driving Rolls Royce and flying private jets.

    3. Account for where you got the money from..simple! How do we expect the politicians to be accountable if the citadel of truth which is the church can't answer a straight-forward query !

  4. Respect is reciprocal! Its just so sad that the Christian faith turns a blind eye to such slate at christian leaders, we in turn even castigate each others, one thing I love about muslims is the fact that they can't take such gibberish from anyone let alone castigate their spiritual leaders. As for El Rufai, he has always been an ethnic bigot! Always will be!

  5. think CAN's response should be checked! If i understood CAN well, they can turn a blind eye when elRufai makes unguarded comments against Jesus but not when he does so against a man, CAN leader? Secondly this should not be made a xtian/muslim issue!I'm muslim and I'm taught by d religion to believe in Jesus though not in the same way as xtians paint him to be dats y im concerned by CANs statement in d 1st place.

    1. The truth is that Christians always choose to ignore snide comments made about Jesus Christ.I don't think its wrong cos He's a God that can fight for himself.However,insulting the CAN president is unwarranted and I think it deserves a reply.In this country we don't fight with facts and evidence.We fight with words.Truth is he can sue him for defamation and El Rufai would have to provide a good defense or be in trouble.At the end of the day,I don tire for naija

    2. That part got me raising one of my brows. "The fact that he can abuse Jesus does not give him the impetus to make guarded comments about pastor Ayo". Rubbish. I cannot take whatever comes out of CAN seriously after that statement.

  25. I think these so called personels in CAN need to check their brains. It's obvious most of these useless people regard and worship man more than JESUS. How can you boldly say you turned a deaf ear when this madman insulted JESUS Christ and now you're threatening him bc he insulted the CAN president? Besides why shld u respond to a madman? God said leave the battle for me for its not yours to fight. We as Christians aren't violent and that is part of our morals. JESUS Christ wasnt violent despite countless insults, provocations and so on. So whoever in CAN that wrote this response should just STFU.

  45. Elrufai if that is his name is a fool and an idiot he can insult pple but he will destroy himself with his own hand.for him to insult christ he is mad and now his servant he has no respect. Can he say that to his religious leader? He is just a big fool

    ReplyDelete
  46. El Rufai should go for a psychological test, I am sure he's unstable mentally because of his recent comments. This is why I question some of the so called religion leader most times, someone make stupid comment about our lord jesus christ and you turn a blind eye and same person now made comment about a human you're ranting here, this what muslims won't take from anyone even tho most times they blow it out of proportion which to me is evil. So point of correction Oritsejafor is the leader of CAN and not leader of christians in nigeria. Jesus is our leader and him alone we follow because CAN is just an association and doesn't represent all christian faith. More so I stop believing all these people, why is it hard for oritsejafor to mention the name of the person that bought him the jet? Why is hard for him to publicly criticise the level of corruption in the country now? Why is it hard for him to join voice with the masses and say NO to all the depression caused by our political leader? Rather he'll sit and dine with thesame politicians stealing our money, same people making life hard for us. Why? Because he's also part of those sharing the money stole from us, he's part of the problem. El Rufai and CAN should be check and CAN should come clean and act like a group that want positive change and better nigeria instead of talking like politicians. *ThatFunctionGuy*

If its not Mr President, it is religious matters, now it's our CAN President. The bible says touch not my anointed and do my Prophet no harm. The fact that the Christians do not respond to your baseless comments does not mean that we do not know what we are doing. Stop instigating Religious War.

  72. What's the hue and cry from CAN about Nasir El Rufai's comments on the character of Ayo Oritsejafor. It was about him and not about CAN.

    Those spinemasters shouldn't drag Christians as we are not certainly involved in this one. Ayo Oritsejafor has been shooting from his hips, acting as Chief Campaigner for GEJ. Its said that he who brings faggot-infested wood into the house should not complain when the rats visit.

    ReplyDelete
  73. This CAN's response is totally irresponsible. An attack on Oritstejafor is definitely not an attack on Christianity. He should respond as an individual, not in the name of Nigeria's Christians. I lost respect for him as soon as he started dabbling into politics, and he definitely does not represent me. CAN should not start a problem between Christians and Muslims.

  75. I am a xtian and I can categorically say that Oritsejafor is NOT my leader and same goes for millions of Xtians in Nigeria. Its irritating. Leader of who?
    I dont blame El-Rufai. Oritsejafor is clearly politicized...openly campaigning for Jona out of pure ethnic sentiments. He opened himself up for such attacks.
    We Xtians know our true leaders. Enough respect to the ilk of Sam Adeyemi, Oyaks, Paul Adefarasin and co. Those are true leaders. But there remains ONE who is outstanding. He who fearlessly stands by God against repression and impunity of power. When TUNDE BAKARE talks, WE MOVE!! That is a true leader. Oritsejafor commands no respect from xtians.

  76. The comment from CAN is total BS. I'm not in support of El-Rufai accusing someone without any concrete prove. But, I think it's time we stopped all this "you are of this religion so you shouldn't say what's on your mind." And for the umpteenth time, El-Rufai didn't insult Jesus nor Mary Magdalene in his RT(not even his personal words).

  77. "The fact that he can abuse Jesus Christ in his tweets and Christians ignored him does not give him the impetus to make unguarded comments about Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, who is the leader of the Christians in Nigeria" I don't get that. Who do they now respect more? Jesus christ or Oritsejafor?

  81. I am a Christian but I do not understand the position CAN is taking. Do they mean that it's okay for el-Rufai to insult Jesus but must not insult Oritsejafor. Is Oritsejafor now bigger than The Lord he claims to be serving? I do not think CAN needs a response. They can go to blazes for all we care. its mere a political organization in the skin of religion. El-Rufai is candid to his opinion and owes no one any explanation whatsoever. What work does Oritsejafor do to own a jet? Let him declare how much he pays himself from his church offering and declare all his assets and show us the status and poverty level amongst his member after which we can all face el-Rufai if not he should kindly stop annoying us. Thanks.

  82. Anybody condeming el-rufai is foolish!!!!......is this the concept of Christianity Jesus had ? Can't access ur so called prophets,private jets, mansions....while their followers go hungry.......all dese pastors are just fakes!

    ReplyDelete
  83. If CAN ignored him becos he made unguarded comments about Jesus Christ then he should be ignored again regarding the comments he made about Pst Ayo.Afterall Jesus is greater than the president of CAN.

  85. Linda I know u won't post my comment as usaul,what's dis with christians de didn't see anything wrong wen he insulted JESUS Christ but wen he insulted CAN,am a christian but seriously we christians are in de habit of worshipping our spiritual leaders 4getting we were called 2 worship only God and not them,how can de be mute wen he insulted our Lord and Saviour and now responding 2 him because he insulted a Man? We seriously need de intervention of God because our so called spiritual leaders are taking HIS role 4getting what de are called 4 and christians are worshipping dem already. What Rubbish!

  89. This CAN president looks like an occult person...I'm not trying to judge...I think we need the likes of Kumuyi,Adeboye to be in that position..They are respected and more spiritual.

  90. This is very funny, so they could turn blind eyz to abusive tweets to JESUS from El-Rufai, but want heavens to fall coz he said something that he probably has prove of about CAN president.

  91. CAN....what a shameful response.

  92. El rufai is a stupid man and can never become the president of this country, he should just go home and sit with his jobless daughters and stop rubbishing the image of others

    ReplyDelete
  93. El-rufai and his misguided statements, if it were a christain that made this statement about the sultan or mohammed , those boko haram muslims would go for the kill. El-rufai is now a jobless man and should go and do something meaniful with the money he looted himself

  96. You people should sit there and turn this thing into a xstain/muslim thing while the Ogas at the top enjoy the drama. Can't you all see this is what they want? We jump at every opportunity to insult each others faith. Anyway I am a muslim and just like every other TRUE muslim I love Jesus ( peace be upon him) as a prophet of God.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Why is it difficult for CAN to tell where the jet came from?

    ReplyDelete
  98. This is absolutely very ridiculous! CAN should as a matter of urgency retract their statement on turning a blind eye.

    ReplyDelete
  99. How can u blame El-rufai. This CAN leader and the xtian leaders has made him to insult our God . They are hungy lions and have missed politics with religion.

  101. I Love Catholic Church!!! They know what they saw and pulled out of CAN.

  102. Nigeria and Nigerians as a whole no longer surprise me. It is more likely for pigs,cows,and shit to grow wings and fly than for Nigeria to ever progress in the direction of a first world country. A religious leader owning a private jet?. There is a white elephant in the room and people are more worried about the lizard. the level of thinking of most nigerians borders on mental retardation. In the words of Jonathan swift "I cannot but conclude the bulk of your Natives, to be the most pernicious Race of little odious Vermin that Nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth". Oh and yes I am a Christian , I have a personal relationship with Christ not just the religion. There is a difference.

  104. Anon@1251 and your cohorts. What did Jesus say about violence, something in the manner of turn the other cheek. What did he do when a sword was raised up to defend him in the garden of Gethsemane and in the commotion an ear was chopped off? You don't have to read the bible you can actually goggle the info, it's quicker. Please do get to know Christ. Violence has and will never be the way of true followers of Christ. It's what sets us apart from unbelievers . Good day and Peace be on to you.

  105. I disagree with the fact that CAN president is the leader of Christians in Nigeria. Christian leadership is not politics. It is a bad egg that causes bad odour inside the room. Where did the CAN president get his jet from?why must he wait for el rufai to insult him before he gives a 7day ultimatum to reveal his secrets ? This is just a political turmoil not a religious fight!

  106. See the supposed leader of Nigerian Christians rocking gold chains! He shudnt be taken serious.

  108. Religious leader my foot. Imagin Christ accepting a gift of money , a luxury boat, gold,diamonds or the world as was offered him by satan. You na when dey support this leader, were your common sense. This one no be Christianity level oh. Na idolatry level. Abeg shine your eye. As for the other religious nut case God is watching you in 4D. The true and only God of heaven and earth does not need mere mortals to fight for him. Be warned. Mad man

  109. Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, who is the leader of the Christians in Nigeria? CAN is not christians representative, they are just PDP extension dat;s all. El-rufai is talking to PDP Affiliate not christians period. Jona bought the jet

  113. Y our pastors are a lecherous and corrupt bunch God has started exposing you xtains for what you are... a pack of pretenders who are quick to abuse and insult other religions but cannot stand it when the holes and rot in their own religion is exposed. The pastor of COZA was implicated in a sex scandal, why didnt CAN take up the issue? why is it now that it has to do with the materials gains greed helped dem get, dey are crying foul like babies?

  114. During elections, they will enter the jet and go round advising their memebers to vote for religion. Who bought the jet? why shouldnt it be spoken?

  117. Why shouldnt El Rufai talk? is he not a nigerian? are you people afraid of him? hes just exposing Oritsejafor for the crook he is. What do we need proof for? Do people ask for proof before dey begin to rain curses on muslims? which yeye proff, abeg carry go ElRufai!!!

  121. Is Oritsejafor not a person? why cant he respond as a person? must he hide under CAN so as to create sentiments in peoples minds and start wahala? A man accused you, answer the man yourself!!

  123. HI, this is Anon 12:01 again. this is in response to anon 2:29 pm who summarily said I'm a fool and dat Xtians dont fight for God but man (dats his own point of view ofcos!).

    I take d fact dat I mentioned i'm muslim back, im sure dats what made u think im foolish, this time im a free thinker.
    As a xtian dat u r, would u rather sit and watch someone cal the name of ur lord in vain, really?! If u can defend man and not your Lord and saviour, I think u r associating partner with God which logically makes u an idolator. Back to being a muslim,I ll defend Jesus, he is superior to CAN leader and I am taught to Love, respect, and adore maybe not worship him doe.

    Logic simply solves some issue rather dan hiding under religious tenets. Whatever Rufai and CAN ve together is not a religious thing and last line, weather we r Xtians or Muslims, heaven is guaranteed only for d righteous and im not sure anyone will ve time in d hereafter to say "did I not tell u my religion is d only acceptable" so do good first before u r xtian or muslim!

  127. Let's all pause to think of this accusation and ask ourselves this question. Why should Religious Leaders own Private Jets? The CAN President should explain to Nigerians. The Catholic Church is the richest organisation in the world but the Pope doesn't and can never own a private Jet. He flies Air Italia like his predecessors because he has his priorities in the right places. You can't preach about vanity and live an ostentatious lifestyle. I'm happy the Catholic Church is not and can never be a member of CAN cos they know the internal deals that go on there. The earlier Christians realize that "some" of their Pastors are money loving hypocrites, the better for us all.

  129. As a xtian I dnt see orisajefor as our leader. Why didn't CAN investigate the COZA scandal. They all kept mute. We knw who gave him d private jet. He. Will soon come out to tell us that God told him jonah shld run for 2nd term. See what the primate said some days bak that universities shld be privitise and ban asuu. These leaders are nw poliitician. Political patronage.
    We xtians really need to look elsewhere for leadership and nt frm the likes. Orisajefor & co.
    Only that the bitter truth is coming frm the wrong person.

  132. I have read comments of Christians and literates with regrets, read national mirror FEB 4 2013 and see CAN response to EL rufai anti jesus tweets stop making issues were they are not the credibility of CAN is at stake here since it's leader was mentioned let EL rufai tell NIGERIANS who gave CAN president his private jeT until then Pastor AYO remains innocent.

    ReplyDelete
  133. More is still coming...
    When the Catholic Bishops conference decried the CAN president's unholy attachment to the govt. in power many cried foul.
    It's unfortunate that this accusation (true or otherwise) is coming from a maverick like El Rufai but CAN's ultimatum is laughable.
    Really it's not christians Vs El-Rufai but Oritsejafor Vs El-Rufai.

  135. my dear fellow this is not the time to be disturbed about comment from leaders or non leaders, this is a time you will be bothered about eternity about your soul remember and know this that the coming of the lord is very quick prepare your way so that you don`t miss the RAPTURE(the coming of the lord jesus christ), and leave those that are caring for the things of this life and they that are making uncatious comment christ has promised to settle it all at his coming, Ecclesiates12:14 for God shall bring every work into judgement,with every secret thing,wethere they be good or evil.

  136. My name is zino Obi-egbedi. I'm a member of word of life. Firstly let me start by saying pastor ayo's jet was a gift from us the church members to him. Secondly the money found on the jet is obviously a scandal. Pastor ayo doesn't have such money at his disposal. Thirdly what does he stand to gain by sponsoring boko haram?considering his relationship with Jonathan. Pastor ayo is a man who has the interest of all Christians at heart, this man has preached the gospel for 42 years...now is the time for Christians to unite and speak as on voice
