The Labour Party’s vice-presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, says President Bola Tinubu has “tried”; for keeping vice-president Kashim Shettima for this long.
Baba-Ahmed stated this while speaking on Arise TV’s Prime Time on Thursday night.
His comments come amid speculation that Tinubu will not keep Shettima as his running mate during the 2027 general elections.
According to Baba-Ahmed, what he knows about Shettima cannot be uttered on national television.
“On Shettima, I don’t blame Tinubu. Because whoever knows what Shettima did and does, will not allow him last this long,”; Baba-Ahmed said.
“The airwaves cannot carry it. And I know I’m speaking on TV.
“I know Tinubu has tried for keeping Shettima this long. Even the consideration that he should be dropped, I think Tinubu has tried.
“It is a pregnant statement. I wish I could say more.
“What people do for power is unbelievable.”;
