ABUJA – There are feelers that stakeholders in the North, on Monday, opted for Former Borno State governor, Senator Kashim Shettima, as running mate to the standard bearer of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.

A source told Daily Independent that stakeholders in the region believes that the former Borno State governor is a better option than the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara and the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, who were reportedly in the race.

Speaking under condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media, the National Working Committee (NWC) member said that “after careful consideration we settled for Senator Shettima. He will give us the votes we need.”

Confirming the report, Dr Garus Gololo, an APC Chieftain commended the choice of Shettima as Tinubu’s running mate, adding that “the decision of the NWC will help the party to win the north.”

“This development means that before 12pm on election day, the APC will defeat Atiku and other opposition candidates, hands down. It’s a clear sign that we will win the 2023 elections. Nothing will stop us, Isha Allah,” he maintained.

Details later.

Selecting a boko haram apologist as VP is dead on arrival, if its true, then tinubu is a mumu.. that would show that he wont get 10% of total Christians vote next year....

How many people will be the vice president or they will be doing shifting two days ago was one fulani woman today another one.

what a fake news

I smell lies

Fake news.

Our frontline news media are now avenue for spreading unverified news.

A drug baron cartel leader and one of key Boko Haram sponsor want to lead us as a nation?

Impossible...
Affliction shall not rise the second time.

Failure looming.

I heard Jide Otitoju proverbially saying APC can opt for Muslim-Muslim ticket and that all they need to do is up their games by using propaganda.

I’m sure CAN and other Christian bodies will kick against. Let the APC run Muslim-Muslim ticket and harvest the North West and North East votes.

They believe those two regions have a bloc vote, do a Muslim-Muslim ticket will appeal to them.

They will be surprised that failure is their end result.

When PDP picked Atiku, another Muslim, after Buhari, nobody said anything because they want PDP to win by all means. Now that APC too want to do something that will make them win, everyone wants to start religion war.


Even if APC pick the most respected pastor as running mate, 80% Nigerian Christians will still vote for either Obi or Atiku.


WHY SHOULD APC RISK LOSING THE ELECTION TO PLEASE THOSE THAT WILL NEVER VOTE THEM
