Akabueze, President and Most Reverend Camillus Umoh, Secretary
respectively of the Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN),
the Church declared that no priest or religious should publicly
endorse politicians.
The CBCN said: “We hereby declare that no Catholic
clergy or religious should publicly endorse any candidate for
political office.”
