Vice-presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Governor of Borno state, Kashim Shettima, has hinted at what Nigerians should expect from the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu’s administration alongside himself as vice.
He pointed out that if elected, their government would emulate the accomplishments Tinubu had laid down in Lagos if they are given a chance at the presidency.
Shettima noted this in his address at the Nigerian Bar Association’s annual general meeting, conducted in Lagos on Monday.
The former Borno state governor urged Nigerians to follow the man who knows the way out.
He said, ‘Nigerians have the capability to see through the worn-out rhetoric and sophistry of pretentious politicians.’
‘Nigerians should follow the man wey know the road. From day one, we will hit the ground running. We’ll promptly address the issue of the economy, ecology, and security.’
‘And we have the antecedents. I built some of the best schools in Nigeria. Go to Borno and see wonders; you will never believe that it is a state in a state of war.’
‘So, we are going to replicate our achievements in Lagos, in Borno and some of the frontline states so that our nation will be a better place.’
‘The fundamental issue is pure leadership.’
