This was disclosed by the CNNC Director of Information, Dr Iliya Yusuf, in a statement signed by the National President of the Association, Elder Steven Baba Bengoji and made available to newsmen in Kaduna.
The statement noted that Christian votes would be for peace and national development.

According to him, the group also advised its members and all northern Christians that their votes should be for peace, development, and justice and always have the church in mind.
