Tinubu-Shettima: APC National Chairman Says Muslim-Muslim Ticket Is The Will Of God

The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu has stated that the party’s 2023 Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket is the will of God.

Adamu stated this on Wednesday in Daura, Katsina State when he led other party leaders on a Sallah homage to President Muhammadu Buhari.

He stressed that the party has no regret about presenting a Muslim-Muslim ticket, saying human beings can not always have what they want.

According to him, the APC Vice Presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima who was unveiled on Sunday by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as his running mate is a human being and a Nigerian first before his religious inclination.

The APC National Chairman however assured that despite the agitations that have greeted the selection, Christians have nothing to be worried about.

“It’s the will of God”, Adamu said.

“God does not do anything in vain. He has reasons for giving us two major religions in Nigeria. We can’t always have what we want at every point in time, all of us.

“The fact of the matter is that we appreciate that the Christians are interested but at the end of the day, nobody is going to promote any particular religion.

“Shettima is also a Nigerian like all of us and it’s the will of God that made it possible for him to be chosen as the Vice Presidential running mate,” he added.

On the Osun governorship election slated for Saturday, July 16, Adamu said he was confident that the APC will emerge victorious.

He added that their visit to Daura was also to brief the President on the happenings at the APC Governorship mega rally campaign held in Osun State on Tuesday.
