Tinubu has made the best choice by choosing Shettima – Zulum reacts
By Adeleye Kunle
Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, Governor of Borno State, has described Senator Kashim Shettima’s selection as the APC’s Vice Presidential candidate as the wisest choice made by the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed, Tracks News reports.
Zulum stated this in a statement he personally signed, the details of which were released from Maiduguri via his media office.
Zulum’s full statement is below:
“Earlier today, I received with great joy the announcement of my mentor, His Excellency, Senator Kashim Shettima, as our party’s Vice Presidential candidate and, insha’Allah, the next Vice President of the Federal Republic under His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, our incoming President, Bi’iznillah.” My deepest wish is that HE Kashim Shettima receives the recognition he so richly deserves as one of Nigeria’s most patriotic leaders.
“For me, and I am sure for many other APC leaders and members, Tinubu’s choice of HE Kashim Shettima is the best choice at this time.”
“Shettima’s choice is very personal to me, and together with our leaders and all stakeholders and APC members, we will campaign vigorously and work day and night to collectively secure the APC’s overwhelming victory in 2023, insha’Allah.”
“There is no doubt that HE Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has chosen a leader who has a thorough understanding of our country and its complexities.” Senator Kashim Shettima knows almost every tribe in Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. He is familiar with the social, cultural, religious, economic, and political structures of all 36 states and the FCT.”
“Shettima is a staunch patriot. He firmly believes in the unity of this country, as he has demonstrated on numerous occasions.”
“Shettima’s administration (in which I had the honor of serving as rector and commissioner) accurately reflected the Nigerian configuration.”
“Above all, Tinubu has chosen for Nigeria, insha’Allah, an incoming Vice President with very deep knowledge not only of the Nigerian economy (challenges and prospects), but also of the world.”
“As early as 2012, Shettima predicted a drop in oil revenue, as well as a potential drop in the value of the naira to the dollar, which is why he imported agricultural products worth over N30 billion that are now worth far more, making Borno one of the richest in agricultural machinery.”
“I have more to say about this one-of-a-kind leader, but I’ll save it for campaigns.”
“In the meantime, I want to express our heartfelt appreciation to our party’s leader, His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari, for his political leadership over the years and for supporting Shettima’s selection as our vice presidential candidate.”
“We are grateful to the APC’s national executives and members of the National Working Committee, as well as all of our party’s elders and stakeholders.”
“We are grateful to all APC governors who have served under the capable leadership of my elder brother, His Excellency, Senator Atiku Bagudu.”
“We thank all APC stakeholders in the Northeast for their support of this wise decision.” “We are grateful to all stakeholders and APC members in Borno State for their unwavering support.”
“We are grateful for the good people of Borno State’s unwavering support and prayers.”
“May Allah lead the APC to a third round of historic victories in 2023, and may that victory serve Nigerians’ best interests in terms of security, massive economic recovery, unending growth, and overall development.” End
