The All Progressives Congress (APC) has disclosed that it will unveil Senator Kashim Shettima, the running mate to its presidential flagbearer, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Wednesday.
It can be recalled that the ruling party had postponed the unveiling five days earlier, with no reason given for the shift in date.
Tinubu had on July 10 announced the ex-governor and Senator representing Borno Central as his running mate in the 2023 general elections.
Nine days after, the ruling party issued a statement, saying the vice presidential candidate will be unveiled in Abuja.
APC National Organising Secretary, Suleiman Argungu, said the exercise will take place by 1 pm at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in the nation’s capital.
“All members of the National Executive Committee, Progressives Governors’ Forum, APC Caucus in the National Assembly, Federal Executive Council, diplomatic corps and presidential aspirants at the June 2022 Special National Convention, APC state chairmen, secretaries and organising secretaries are hereby invited to witness this landmark official unveiling of our great party’s vice presidential candidate,” the statement read.
