Explaining to the CAN leadership Tinubu said, “Choosing a Christian running mate would have been easy but that is not the case.

“My choice of Shettima is borne out of the urgent need to address the challenges facing the country and Shettima possesses strong leadership abilities which he exhibited when he was the governor of Borno State. I wanted a progressive government that was why I selected Shettima.

“We have urgent challenges that do not depend on religious leanings but on the best of hands that can address it,” he added.

Tinubu, who attended the meeting with his wife, Remi, told the leaders of the organization that the APC’s Muslim-Muslim ticket would not be a problem.

The presidential contender went on to say that he will repeat what he done in Lagos at the federal level by working in the best interests of everyone.

He said, “I seek to become Nigeria’s president not on religious grounds but on the constitution. Thanks to the body for the invitation to candidates to speak on their plans for the nation.

“I believe in the need for a secular government and for us to work in the interest of the country just as I did in Lagos State. I partnered with the Christians to improve lives and foster education. I returned missionary schools to the rightful owners, most of which were Christians.”
