Political activist Deji Adeyanju has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to disqualify candidates for visiting churches and mosques to seek support ahead of the 2023 general election.
Adeyanju claimed that Nigerian law prohibits religious or tribal affiliation in election campaigns.
He said:
In another post, Adeyanju ridiculed Funke Akindere,
Lagos’ People’s Democratic Party (PDP) vice-governor candidate. because she was in church service.
He wrote: She almost went into a trance.
Politicians should keep their politics away from the church. “
