The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the party’s 2023 presidential flag-bearer, Bola Tinubu has said that his running mate will be a Northern Christian.
“The VP slot belongs to the Northeastern region and particularly the Christians, but consultations are yet ongoing as to who will be decided.”
Tinubu, who spoke to newsmen at the APC governorship rally in Ekiti State yesterday, June 14, ahead of the state’s governorship election, described those who have been flying the news about his decision to go for a Muslim-Muslim ticket as ignorants, even as he made it clear that he intends to pick a Northern Christian as his running mate.
Tinubu also described the carriers of the claims as undemocratic elements.
The presidential hopeful said that the carriers of the untrue report were only being threatened by his imminent victory in the coming presidential election.
Tinubu assured Nigerians that no group, institution or person can impose a running mate on him.
