Anti Muslim-Muslim ticket campaigners protest at unveiling of Shettima as APC VP candidate

A group of anti Muslim-Muslim campaigners on Wednesday stormed the Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja, venue of the official unveiling of Senator Kashim Shettima as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.

The protesters displayed placards with various inscriptions showing their stand against the running mate.

Tinubu who would be contesting the 2023 presidential election in Nigeria has chosen Shettima, also Muslim, as his running mate.

The group condemned the makeup of the APC candidacy.

They said that Tinubu ought to have respected the sensibilities of Nigerians by choosing a Christian instead of a Muslim as his running mate.
