Convener of the National Peace Committee, Bishop Matthew Kukah, on Friday, expressed sadness over what he described as members of the judiciary and religion getting sucked into politics.
Bishop Kukah speaking at the 8th House of Justice Summit held in Kaduna State said that his sadness was greater as priests in the church were also getting sucked into politics, saying that they would not come out the same and likened it to wrestling with pigs in the mud.
Noting that he was not referring to politicians as pigs, the cleric explained that politics has its own rhyme and rhythm, especially in contrast to someone who has a certain moral responsibility.
The Bishop of the Sokoto Catholic Diocese, however, urged Nigerians not to be despondent, saying the best is still to come and should be focused on the present rather than worrying about the next generation.
