The group which stated this in a press statement signed by the Coordinator, Mal. Garba Yunusa, posited that picking Governor Simon Lalong will not only be a perfect match for the party’s election victory, but also to strike balance and douse the existing tension already overheating the polity.
“Nigerians are not unaware that Tinubu is a Muslim from the South-West geo-political zone, thus we feel it would be rational for a northern Christian, especially from the marginalized North-Central geo-political zone to be a running mate, who can also take care of interest of the Minorities”. jamb results
“We strongly believe that once a Christian is picked, the warning and threats by Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) would have been taken care of too.”
“This is part of reasons we are calling on Tinubu to shun those rooting for a Muslim -Muslim ticked under guise of “merit and competence ” and pick Governor Lalong, who can draw votes considering his track records of performance and his position as the current Chairman of Northern States Governors Forum with 19 states within his reach.
“We are sure the south will also be comfortable with him, considering his detribalised disposition and how he has handled the problems of insecurity in Plateau State as the Governor.”
