Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) on Friday rose in defence of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on the N90 billion allegation leveled against him by a former deputy national spokesperson of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Timi Frank.
National President of (CAN) Rev. Supo Ayokunle and some members of the apex Christian body in the country also on Friday visited Osinbajo over the alleged allegation to pray for him.
Timi Frank had alleged that the Vice President collected N90 billion from the Federal Inland Revenue (FIRS) to fund the 2019 election.
Ayokunle, however speaking with journalists at the Christian Ecumenical Centre where he held a meeting with top members of CAN, said Osinbajo is innocent of the allegations, describing it as baseless.
He said the church and all Nigerians are proud of the VP and would continue to pray for him.
The CAN boss said Osinbajo “ has cleared the air that the allegation is baseless and there is no truth in it and that some people are plotting against him and he was ready to provide himself to be cleared.
“If there is an allegation there must be an evidence and that it can never happen and will never happen. The church and the entire country will fight for him.”
