Asiwaju Tinubu announced his choice in a letter personally signed on Sunday in Daura, Katsina State when he paid Sallah homage to President Muhammadu Buhari.

“Today I announce the selection of Sen. Kashim Shettima as my partner and running mate in the mission to advance and reclaim the fortunes of this great country and the hopes of its people.

“Shettima’s career in politics and beyond shows that he is eminently qualified not only to deliver that all-important electoral victory but, also step into the shoes of the Vice-President.

“As a man with the talent, maturity, strength of character, and patriotism, he has my implicit confidence and faith,” Tinubu said.He was also confident that him and Sen. Shettima being Muslims would not hurt the APC in the 2023 presidential election.

“If we truly understood the challenges upon us as a country, we must also see the imperative of placing competence in governance above religious sentiments.

“In 1993, Nigerians embrace Chief MKO Abiola and a fellow Muslim running mate, Baba Gana Kingibe in one of the country’s fairest elections ever held.

“The spirit of 1993 is upon us again in 2023,” Tinubu added.

Asiwaju Tinubu also said that the choice of Shettima would brighten the APC’s chances at the poll.
