The All Progressives Congress has postponed the official unveiling of Kashim Shetima, the former governor of Borno State, as its vice presidential candidate for the 2023 general election.
Shetima was supposed to be presented to party members on Thursday at the APC national Secretariat, but the Chairman of the APC Press Corp told reporters the event had been rescheduled.
He stated that a new date will be announced in due time, and that it will most likely be sometime next week.
The Press Corp chairman said the directive for the postponement was given by the party’s Deputy National Secretary.
No reason has been given for the decision which comes amid controversy over the choice of a Muslim-Muslim ticket by the party.
