Matthew Ishaya Audu, the Catholic Archbishop of Jos Archdiocese has stated that he has accepted the apology tendered to the Catholic Church by Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau State on his reference to the pope while recently talking about his appointment as the Director General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that\u00a0Lalong had said the pope was not opposed to his appointment as the Director General (DG) of the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The statement infuriated members of the Catholic faith who said the dragging the name of the pope into Nigerian politics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pre-ads-el\" data-add-marked=\"true\">This followed the debate over the APC decision to settle for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/08\/12\/its-reprehensible-bishop-kukah-slams-apc-over-muslim-muslim-ticket\/\">Muslim\/Muslim ticket<\/a> as a political strategy.<\/p>\n<p data-add-marked=\"true\">But the governor thereafter tendered an apology to the Catholics for his remarks. In spite of this, some sections of the church have been giving different conditions for the acceptance of the apology.<\/p>\n<p>Archbishop Audu, however, accepted Lalong\u2019s apology yesterday in his homily at the 19th General Assembly of the Archdiocese of Jos held at the St. Louis Parish Jos with the theme \u201cThe Eucharist our Strength towards a Better Nigeria\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cYour apology is accepted.
