You wanted Elrufai off #theplatform because you don& #39;t like his face or can& #39;t stand him. That& #39;s not quite how it works, my dear.

You see, #theplatform didn& #39;t grow to become this big, national brand by shutting out controversial characters or policy makers
Each year, Pastor Poju and his team settle for a topic that they consider germane for that period.

A topic they think would drive the national conversation and help in nation building.

Next, they choose speakers who would do justice to the chosen theme. This is not a drill
Speakers are drawn from the private and public sectors, across partisan and religious divides.

Even though conceived by the Covenant Christian Center, #theplatform is not a Christian only forum. It& #39;s not a preaching platform.

It& #39;s for policy discussions. It& #39;s serious business
You may not like Elrufai, but he& #39;s one of the smartest politicians and policy makers around. He governs a state. His decisions affect millions of people.

If he& #39;s not good enough to speak at the #theplatform because of his previous controversial hot takes, who should?
And while we are it, here& #39;s the live link to the platform. Don& #39;t boycott anything. No one should gaslight you into boycotting knowledge and a forum that enriches the mind like #ThePlatform https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c8LoR84Xjs">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
