Kingsley Moghalu, a former presidential candidate, has stated that the Muslim-Muslim ticket of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) is a \u201cpolitical calculation\u201d, and not a declaration of religious war.<\/p>\n

Tweeting on Friday, Moghalu, who lost the ADC presidential ticket in the primaries, said he is not surprised by the uproar the issue has generated.<\/p>\n
