Political activist, Deji Adeyanju, has said the All Progressives Congress, APC, fielded a Muslim-Muslim ticket because it knows the opposition is weak.
On Sunday, the APC announced former Borno governor, Kashim Shettima, as the running mate of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, both men being Muslims.
This was against calls from Nigerians for political parties not to field a ticket with both candidates of the same religion.
Reacting, Adeyanju stated that the oppositions in Nigeria need to unite otherwise the APC will continue to have a good laugh with its decision.
“The reason they can dare such a brazen move of Muslim-Muslim ticket is because they know the opposition is useless and divided. And they will win if the opposition doesn’t heed my wise counsel.
“Tinubu and the APC are saying they don’t give a damn. The message of the Muslim-Muslim ticket is too loud. In fact, they are having a good laugh and with a divided opposition, they will laugh harder in February.”
