The National Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress, Daniel H. Bwala has resigned over the APC choice of a Muslim-Muslim Presidential ticket for next year’s election.
His resignation comes in the midst of the backlash that has welcomed the announcement of Sen. Kassim Shettima, Former Governor of Borno State as the Vice Presidential Candidate of the ruling party.
Shettima, a Muslim by faith will be running alongside Bola Ahmed Tinubu the Presidential Flagbearer who is also a Muslim.
Their ticket has immediately attracted attacks from a cross-section of Nigerians who contend that such ticket is insensitive to the religious composition of the country.
