Northerners Should Reject Atiku For Opposing Sharia In Nigeria - Kashim Shettima by FuglyGurl(op): 9:31am On Feb 13, 2023
All Progressives Congress vice presidential candidate Kashim Shettima says northerners should ditch Atiku Abubakar for his opposition to the enactment of Sharia rule across the region.

Addressing party faithful at an APC local government conference, Mr Shettima urged the northern voters to reject Mr Abubakar at the February 25 polls because he fought against the Islamic legal system in the North.

“This person you call your own says you should not call him ‘Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, but rather Atiku Abubakar,” Mr Shettima told his audience in the Hausa language. “Your person says he is the only person that fights against Sharia in the north. Is that your person?”

The APC vice presidential candidate’s remarks is his latest attempt to whip up ethno-religious rhetoric against the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate.

Peoples Gazette had recently reported how Mr Shettima, at Emir Palace in Daura, Katsina, publicly challenged Mr Abubakar to come out and mention eight people he has mentored in the North; or the capital projects he executed in the North while he served as Nigeria’s vice president between 1999 to 2007.

Mr Shettima told his audience that Mr Abubakar’s presidency would not serve the North’s ethno-religious interests.

If you keep talking about them, people will continue to take them seriously. Keep making Atiku popular by talking about him.

This is why I am not voting for Tinubu as a Yoruba man. He is not in good health and I don't want this man to get anywhere close to Aso Rock.

It's probably going to take an entire century for Nigeria to break the jinx of politics based on tribe and religion.

undecided

Shettima has been attacking Atiku lately. What could be going wrong?.

So if Atiku once kicked against Sharia, is it Tinubu that once supported it?

An average core northerner will rather have a northerner who kicked against Sharia as a president, than a southern Muslim who neither supported nor kicked against sharia and who is married to a pastor

I don't care what anyone has to say about Atiku, he's my candidate.
All these attempts by Shettima to play the religious card will fail.

Atiku is coming

Now everybody can see why they goes for Muslim Muslim ticket.
Any foolish Christian that vote for Tinubu should know what he is expecting.
I said it, Christianity will be a history in this country.
