Bola Tinubu Picks Kashim Shettima As Running Mate

Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate for the 2023 election, has picked a Muslim running mate.

Recall that some stakeholders in the country had warned the former Lagos State Governor against picking a Muslim running mate, as Muslim-Muslim ticket would sideline the Christians.

However, a report on Sunday indicated that Tinubu has settled for Senator Kashim Shettima as his running mate.

Shettima, the representative of Borno Central Senatorial District in the Red Chamber, was a two-term Governor of Borno State.

Tinubu is expected to inform President Muhammadu Buhari about his choice of running mate within the week.
