The former Lagos governor expressed delight that the stakeholders were completely behind him and his vision of giving Nigeria “Renewed Hope” and making it better in 2023.

He assured them that if elected, he would do his best to draw on the experience, knowledge, and skills of technocrats from across the country to address the nation’s challenges.

Also speaking, Shettima stated that the widespread acceptance of his joint ticket with Tinubu demonstrates that Nigerians are moving beyond ethnic and religious sentiment politics to consider capacity and excellence.
