* Amid criticism
The former governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima, has been officially named the vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 presidential election.
Shettima was introduced during a gathering in Abuja on Wednesday.
Bashir Ahmad, the former Personal Assistant on New Media to President Muhammadu Buhari, revealed this via a tweet.
“Our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), unveils Senator Kashim Shettima as the running mate of our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he tweeted.
Following his selection as the APC’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu chose Shettima to serve as his running mate.
However, Shettima’s selection by Tinubu has continued to spark debate across the country.
