Vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Kashim Shettima, described his Muslim-Muslim ticket as a product of pragmatic permutation.
According to him, it bears no sectional agenda as some people have been colouring it.
He thus commended Christian members of the party foe their understanding.
Shettima noted this on Wednesday, when he was unveiled in Abuja.
He said: “This ticket isn’t an imposition; it’s an outcome of democracy at its practical best, and based on the aggregation of the ideas and insights, of our great party’s stakeholders. If this were an unpopular option, as the cast of partisan provocateurs has attempted to paint, there wouldn’t have been the tonnes of goodwill messages, especially from distinguished Christians, from all over the country. This ticket is a Nigerian project, not a sectional agenda, that the frightened camps have been struggling to sensationalise.
“I’m sincerely proud of the rational citizens, who view this, as nothing but a pragmatic permutation, to defeat our opponents at the polls, and based on acknowledgment and implementation of the candid perspectives of our Christian brothers and sisters in the APC, who, like us, are bound by the passion for us to retain power, in order to deepen the delivery of unifying and transformative governance, to Nigerians.”
