Adams Oshiomhole, a former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the ex-governor of Edo State, has dismissed the issue surrounding Ahmed Bola Tinubu\u2019s selection of a Muslim running mate.<\/p>\n

According to Oshiomhole, it is imperative that the nation abandon archaic notions like religion and ethnicity and instead place a strong emphasis on the qualifications and bravery of candidates to preserve the nation.<\/p>\n

Speaking on TVC on Thursday, the former governor praised Tinubu for choosing the Muslim-Muslim APC ticket and expressed his delight with it.<\/p>\n

Senator Kashim Shettima, a former governor of Borno State, was selected by Tinubu as his running mate.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cThe more opposition party joined the Muslim-Muslim debate, the more I\u2019m satisfied that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu\u2019s decision is right.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need courage. We have struggled to balance this religious issues in recent years. Tinubu\u2019s decision shows that he will take bold step when elected.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the number of churches and mosques we have built over the years is equal to number of factories, we won\u2019t be at this poverty level in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oshiomhole added that he was also satisfied with the choice of Shettima due to his capacity and some of his achievements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
