Schools Re-classification: PFN Warns Aregbesola Against Causing Division Among Christians

The uproar that greeted the schools re-classification policy in Osun State continued yesterday with the state chapter of Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) warning Governor Rauf Aregbesola against seeking to divide the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in his desperate bid to force the policy on people of the state.
Chairman of PFN in the state, Rev. Olasunbo Ige; and state secretary, Pastor John Adeleke, gave this warning in a statement issued in Osogbo, the state capital, on Thursday.
PFN was reacting to reports in the media that it disagreed with CAN and accused the umbrella body of Christians in the country of peddling rumour rather than seeking information on the policy of schools reclassification in Osun State.
But the PFN, an arm of CAN, said the story which was aimed at causing disharmony among Christians, was planted in the media by one of Aregbesola’s aides.
The statement read, “We want to state categorically that Osun chapter of PFN under the leadership of Rev. Olasunbo Ige never met with any government official on any issue. Again, we need to explain that PFN in Osun State has never at any time disagreed with our umbrella body, the CAN, either at the state or national levels.
“Rather, we have been part of the struggle for good governance and we always stand for what CAN stood for in Osun. PFN is aware of several mischievous plans to create disaffection within the state CAN. But we in PFN reiterate our support for our leaders in CAN and we are solidly behind them in this just battle.
“We call on Osun State government to address all issues placed before Governor Rauf Aregebsola by the state chapter of CAN. We need to caution that politics of divide and rule cannot help in moving us forward”.
