Kabiru Masari, the placeholder Vice-Presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the forthcoming 2023 election, has resigned his position.
Masari made known his intention in a letter addressed to members of the APC on Sunday, a copy of which was made available to POLITICS NIGERIA.
The Katsina-born politician has been replaced with Kashim Shettima, a former governor of Borno State.
Masari’s letter reads in part: “I had the singular honour and privilege of being nominated as the running mate to Asiwaju Tinubu last month after a keenly contested presidential primary ahead of the 2023 general election.
“But, after much reflection and wider consultations, I now wish to step down. I realised that my decision will enable Asiwaju to have more latitude to give more accommodation and inclusion that will position our party to win the coming elections, with the support of the people of Nigeria.
“In stepping down, I believe I can still serve our party and the country in several other capacities.
“I wish to confirm that I have submitted my withdrawal letter and affidavit to that effect as the vice-presidential candidate to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the coming elections.”
And, the IDLE loafers. What now happens to them and their thoughtless futile THANKLESS busy body misgivings?
