Tinubu officially unveils Shettima as running mate 

The former governor of Lagos State and the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has officially unveiled Kashim Shettima as his running mate for the forthcoming 2023 presidential elections.

According to Bashir Ahmad, president Buhari’s former personal assistant tweet, the former governor of Boron State was unveiled on Wednesday, at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.

This was coming barely two weeks after the national leader of the party picked the lawmaker as his vice-presidential candidate.

Tinubu’s Muslim Muslim ticket choice has continued to generate controversy, especially among Christians.
