President Muhammadu Buhari has met with the vice-presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Kashim Shettima.

Naija News reports that Shettima was accompanied to the Presidential Villa by the Governor of Borno State, Babagana Zulum.

This is the first Buhari would ve meeting with Senator Kashim Shettima since he was picked as the running mate of the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Recall that Tinubu had officially unveiled a former Governor of Borno State as his running mate.

This is coming two weeks after the former Governor of Lagos State announced the lawmaker as his running mate.

The APC presidential candidate announced Shettima as his running mate despite outcries over the Muslim/Muslim ticket of the ruling party ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Tinubu on Wednesday alongside other APC stalwarts, including the party’s National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, officially unveiled Shettima at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.
