The Charismatic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria, led by Leonard Kawas, has revealed the reason behind their shift of support from presidential candidate Peter Obi to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election. In an interview with Channels Television, Kawas revealed that he initially backed Obi over Tinubu in the 2023 presidential race.
However, he and his group now believe that Tinubu is moving in the right direction, which led them to back his re-election bid. Kawas emphasized that it was not a matter of convenience, as he firmly believes that supporting Tinubu is a matter of his fundamental human right. He stated that based on the current issues and the leading of the Spirit, he and his group are now fully supporting Tinubu for the 2027 election, as they are confident that he will lead Nigeria to great heights in all areas.
The Charismatic Bishops’ endorsement of Tinubu has sparked political discussions, as Tinubu, Peter Obi, Atiku Abubakar of the African Democratic Congress, and other presidential candidates gear up for the January 16, 2027, presidential election.
