Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State has knocked Peter Obi of Labour Party for dragging churches into politics.
Okowa, who is thee the running mate to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar slammed Obi from going from church to church.
Okowa, who spoke with reporters in Kano State on Wednesday, said he does not believe in dragging the church into partisan politics, stressing that politics is not the calling of the church.
“Now you begin to look at what is going on; the Peter Obi factor is as if he is trying to go through the church and make it look as if he is driving the Christians into politics. I do not believe that the church should actively go into politics because that is not their calling.
“But people are just hanging to anything they can reach out to even to the detriment of their fate. I don’t believe that’s the right part to go,” he said.
