The Twitter handle of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) on Wednesday posted a message on the proposed running mate for Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Tinubu polled 1,271 votes to defeat 13 other presidential hopefuls at the APC primary, which was concluded on Wednesday.
Rotimi Amaechi, former minister of transportation and top contender, polled 316 votes, while Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo got 235 votes.
Senate President Ahmad Lawan, the “consensus candidate” of Abdullahi Adamu, APC national chairman, polled 152 votes, while Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi, got 47 votes.
On Wednesday, a Twitter user, @Ssaasquatch, had posted on how difficult it may be for Tinubu to select a vice-presidential candidate.
Responding to the Twitter user, the NNPC official handle had posted: “He will run with a Muslim VP.”
