APC Muslim Youths Reject Shettima As Tinubu’s Choice Over Christian Candidate. by aguele(m): 7:34am On Jul 20, 2022 |
The All Progressives Congress APC Muslim youths have rejected the choice of Senator Kashim Shettima as the running mate to Chief Bola Tinubu in the forthcoming Presidential Polls The youths want him replaced with a Christian Cleric without any delay. The youths spoke in Abuja at a news conference. Les by its Convener, Abdullahi Saleh, the youths said they are seriously against a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Saleh said while it must be stated that there is a right to make decisions, however, such decisions must not be made to the collective detriment of the sensibilities of the people that make up the country of Nigeria. "As concerned stakeholders of the APC in the 19 Northern States in the country, we find it worrisome that such a decision could be taken without recourse to its implication on the electoral chances of the party and the attendant uproar such a decision could bring about in the country. "It is also worrisome that of all the country's political parties, only the APC presented a Muslim-Muslim ticket. In our opinion, this is insensitive and a gross display of a lack of respect for our Christian brothers and sisters. "This is on the heels that the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is a Muslim from South West Nigeria, and picking another Muslim from the northern part of the country as his running mate is politically and morally indefensible. "We hold the firm conviction that such a move can boomerang with unpleasant consequences for the APC at the general elections, hence the need for the party's leadership to make haste to correct this error of judgment" he added. He said in Northern Nigeria, there are credible candidates with rich credentials and with massive grassroots following that can complement the presidential ticket of the APC in the presidential elections. "As such, the 19 APC states Northern Muslims Forum sees the selection of Senator Kashim Shettima as an aberration that should be corrected with immediate effect by the relevant authorities within the party. "The implication of non-action in this regard can only be imagined, so much so that the majority of the eligible voters in Northern Nigeria have elected to boycott the APC in protest of the disrespect and disregard to Northern Christians, whose population and relevance in the scheme of things in the region cannot be overemphasized. "As a group, we wish to state unequivocally that we reject the choice of Senator Kashim Shettima as the vice presidential candidate of the APC. This decision is hinged on the need to ensure a balance in the presidential ticket of the APC, as it has been since the return of democracy in 1999. The APC must respect the religious diversity of the country. We hold the opinion that emphasis must be placed on ensuring a united house before the elections and not a fragmented house" he added The youths called on President Muhammadu Buhari and the Presidential candidate of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to replace the vice presidential candidate of the APC with a Christian cleric as the vice presidential candidate of the party. "If the APC is desirous of recording electoral success in the 2023 presidential elections, it must retrace its steps by selecting a Christian cleric as its vice presidential candidate. The party must not be perceived as promoting a religious agenda by fielding a Muslim-Muslim ticket. "The 19 APC States Northern Muslim Forum condemns such a move in its totality as it is a recipe for the entrenchment of mutual suspicion between the Muslims and the Christians in the country, which won’t augur well for relative peace and tranquillity. "We consequently say no to a Muslim-Muslim ticket by the APC. We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to kindly intervene to save the party from an electoral crisis. We urge Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to emulate the example of President Muhammadu Buhari in the choice of his running mate in the 2015 and 2019 presidential elections. "This stance is hinged on the national interest. Our Christian brothers and sisters deserve a place in the scheme of things, and the APC must not be seen as a religiously insensitive party. The time to act is now" he said

Whoever is this ugly Agbado munching bastard adviser/advisers did him great harm to have told him to picked a Muslim as his running mate. Anyways, I am not surprised, because someone like Tinubu will definitely surrounded himself with myopic bastards who knows nothing than to munch cassava and Agbado. BATstards everywhere. 5 Likes |

Tinubu scored a political own goal with his choice of a Boko Haram apologist He can no longer get block Vote in the southwest, cos from today's campaign against the Muslim Muslim ticket Begins across all churches from southwest to south South to southeast down to the North. Nobody will be bold enough to come and campaign for Tinubu(APC) Muslim Muslim ticket in any church or Christian gathering in the southwest, he/she will be Stoned on the pulpit, booed, and chased away. All Christians let's join hands together to vote out this Islamic party that wants to Islamize Nigeria, we don't know if Nigeria is an Islamic country. #obi-datti 2023 |

Lol I’ve not seen a single gain that Tinubu derived from this Muslim-Muslim ticket stupidity. It’s been loses and backlash from left, right and center. Christians now see Tinubu and his running mate as anathema. The Muslims he wanted to please with it don’t seem impressed either. But in Tinubu urchins’ brain, Tinubu is a master strategist. Now he has strategized his ambition into the abyss. But guess what, Tinubu urchins are gonna leave these northern youths and start attacking Peter Obi and his supporters. Another thing is to call these guys faceless, that no one knows them. Meanwhile, Tinubu is stuck with Shettima. Window for substitution is over. Tinubu must now live with the consequences of his choice. 2 Likes |
