Ganduje reacts as Tinubu shuns him, El-Rufai, picks Shettima as running mate

Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has reacted to the emergence of Kashim Shatimm as Bola Tinubu’s presidential running mate.

According to Ganduje, Shettima’s selection is a sure bet that the All Progressives Congress, APC, will win the 2023 general elections.

Ganduje, who was also in the front burner for the VP contest, congratulated Senator Shetima over his nomination as vice presidential candidate of the APC.

He expressed confidence that the representative of Borno Central Senatorial District and a former two-term governor of Borno State is a good choice capable of working with the presidential candidate to take Nigeria to greater heights.

The Governor commended the APC flagbearer, Asiwaju Bola Ahmad Tinubu for making a choice in Shetima, and described the combination as an assurance for the success of the party at the polls.

Ganduje then called on Nigerians, particularly members of the APC, to rally round its presidential candidate and his running mate to ensure their success.
