In response to the topic of the Muslim-Muslim ticket in the upcoming election, All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Ahmad Tinubu stated that Nigeria began on the foundation of peace and brotherhood, regardless of tribe or religion.

On Tuesday, he declared this at a town hall meeting of Muslim leaders from the Northwest in Kano.

Tinubu claimed that Nigeria’s former National Anthem began with “Though Tribes and Tongues May Differ, In Brotherhood We Stand,” and that this should continue as a nation.
He added that individuals who do not care for Nigeria have changed this reality into what it is today, while pledging to carry everyone along based on his ideals that are good to the country and not on tribe or religion.


Tinubu stated that his vision for Nigeria’s development is one of teamwork, continuity, and consistency.

“You symbolize the spiritual and ethical principles of our country and without your direction, we would not be on the correct path.

“Hence we must rededicate ourselves to work harder for the advancement and development of our country.
We must be fair and just.
We must live together as one. It is those who do not mean well for Nigeria that preach division. “Nigeria started with a National Anthem ‘though tribes and tongue may differ in brotherhood we stand’. They will not succeed and you as religious scholars must resist it. “I promise to conduct my campaign as I conducted myself while in office.
Urge your followers to come out and vote wisely for me,” Tinubu told the Muslim clerics. In his address earlier, the Northern Coordinator of APC Presidential Campaign and Jigawa state governor, Muhammad Abubakar, dismissed allegations of a Yoruba dominated government when Tinubu is elected. He stated that there is no caucus meeting that does not include the Kano state governor Abdullahi Ganduje and Nuhu Ribadu, both of who will not betray the north.
He further stated that Tinubu is in good health and is intellectually awake, and that he will not let Nigeria down.

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, the event’s host, asserted that the Muslim-Muslim ticket is not new in Nigeria.

He claimed that the country saw it during MKO Abiola’s election, when he chose Babagana Kingibe as his running mate and won an election that was later invalidated by the military dictatorship.

“This will be replicated with Tinubu and Shettima in the approaching election, which they will win and will not be annulled as a democracy,” Ganduje vowed.
