Some people sponsor terrorism to blackmail Tinubu as they did to Jonathan — Bishop Kawas

Archbishop Leonard Bature Kawas alleged that some individuals are sponsoring banditry, kidnapping, and terrorism in Nigeria to discredit President Bola Tinubu's administration. In an interview, he stated that the bishops' endorsement of Tinubu was not financially motivated and that no money was received in exchange for their support. Kawas compared this situation to that of former President Goodluck Jonathan, claiming similar efforts were made to portray him negatively.
