Muslim-Muslim ticket: Tinubu finally reveals religion of his running mate

The All Progressives Congress presidential flag bearer, Bola Tinubu, has reacted to rumours that he is planning to fly a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

Tinubu, while speaking during APC rally in Ekiti State, insisted that no body or group of persons can impose a running mate on him.

He condemned the viral report that he has settled for a Muslim as running mate as handiwork of anti-democratic elements who are afraid of his imminent victory in the forthcoming general election.

He added that the the vice presidential slot belongs to the North East and the candidate must be a Christian to reflect the country’s religious diversity.

Tinubu, however, said the party was yet too pick a running mate.
