Governors on the platform of the All Progressives Congress on Monday visited President Muhammadu Buhari at his residence in Daura, Katsina.
They immediately went into a closed-door meeting to discuss the emergence of Senator Kashim Shettima as the running mate of the party’s Presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
POLITICS NIGERIA earlier reported that the Governors were not so happy about the pattern with which Shettima was announced as running mate. However, after the meeting with the President, the Governors said they were pleased with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s choice of Kassim Shettima as his running mate in the 2023 presidential election.
The Governors described Shettima as one of Nigeria’s finest.
The Governors who made the trip include Aminu Masari of Katsina, Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano, Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna, Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi, Abubakar Bello of Niger, Hope Uzodimma of Imo, Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti, Simon Lalong of Plateau and Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa.
Speaking after the meeting, Bagudu said a Tinubu-Shettima presidency will complement all the achievements of the last seven years under president Muhammadu Buhari.
FAKE NEWS DEBUNKED.
The earlier rider and report from Politicsnigeria happen on a Bwala and senator Rabo resigning from the APC, while some FACELESS governors were to meet with president Buhari to express their feelings and rejection of the VP pick of ABAT, their standard flag bearer.
HOPEFULLY, THIS MEDIUM LEARNS ITS LESSON AND CHECKS ITS FACTS BEFORE GOING PUBLIC. LEST WE LOSE CONFIDENCE IN ITS REPORTAGE.
The APC governors were never disappointed in the choice of Shettima as VP, by its presidential candidate, Asiwaju for the office of president of Nigeria. They instead paid the president a courtesy visit to appreciate his conduct self-restrain for a fair level playing ground that made possible without rancour, the emergence of the party’s flag bearer and express CONFIDENCE in the choice of a VP.
AS A MATTER OF FACT. IT WAS A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE IN THE PRESIDENT AND THEIR PARTY’S STANDARD BEARER.
