CAN further advised President Tinubu to take a proactive stance in ensuring that appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria and that the best individuals are selected for positions.
The president of CAN, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, who made this call in a press statement on Tuesday said Nigerians are looking forward to an administration that will address the injustices and unfairness of the past, and they hope that President Tinubu will use the opportunity of these appointments to allay the fears of Nigerians.
“We again congratulate President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his assumption of office as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“We recognize that he is taking office at a time when virtually all sectors of the country are yearning for attention and we wish to advise the President to ensure a good balance in the appointment of Security Chiefs and other top political positions that will help stabilize his government.
“It is crucial that the appointments reflect the diversity of Nigeria, and that qualified individuals from different religious and ethnic backgrounds are allowed to serve in these positions.
“CAN acknowledges the importance of these appointments in ensuring the security and well-being of Nigerians,” he said.
