BREAKING: Delays In Unveiling Of Tinubu’s Running Mate By The All Progressives Congress(APC)

The All Progressives Congress has postponed the unveiling of Kashim Shettima as the running mate of its presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.

However, no official reason had been given as of the time of filing this report.

Also, no new date has been announced for the unveiling.

The PUNCH had reported that Tinubu announced Shettima as his running mate on Sunday, saying the former Borno State Governor was picked to enable good governance.

But the APC had failed to officially announce Shettima as Tinubu’s running mate four days after.

Controversy, however, greeted Shettima’s choice as some northern governors expressed reservations.

Also, many Nigerians faulted the selection of Shettima as Tinubu’s running mate, warning the APC against having a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

According to Tinubu, he prioritised national growth and development above “religious sentiments” in picking Shettima.

Tinubu said Shettima’s career in politics and beyond shows that “he is eminently qualified not only to deliver that all-important electoral victory”.

The APC presidential candidate recalled that in 1993, Nigerians embraced Chief MKO Abiola and a fellow Muslim running mate, Baba Gana Kingibe, in “one of our fairest elections ever held”.
