With less than two weeks to the deadline set by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for submission of running mates, the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, has been cautioned against picking Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State or his predecessor, Kashim Shettima as his running mate.

Tinubu is believed to be considering a Muslim-Muslim ticket amid an outcry by Nigerians.

Reports have it that Tinubu may name either Zulum or Shettima as his running mate in the next few days.

The APC presidential candidate had submitted the name of Kabiru Masari to INEC as a placeholder.

But, with time running out, Tinubu was reported to have circled down on both names after wide consultations with political stakeholders.

However, a staunch ally of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Reno Omokri, said the two names queried Tinubu’s choice of Shettima and Zulum.

The former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan recounted how Shettima failed to provide security for Chibok Christian community in Borno State.

In a series of tweets, Omokri accused Zulum of neglecting the Christian community in the state.

Omokri tweeted: “Yes, Bola Tinubu’s wife is a Christian pastor. However, is she not the same person who said ‘Igbo, we no dey trust una again’? So, if her husband picks a Muslim Vice President, can such a woman drop her bias against Igbos, who are mostly Christians and love them?

“Shettima notoriously failed to provide security for the Chibok Christian community. When Wike, the then Minister of State for Education (now Governor of Rivers) wrote him to move WAEC students from Chibok to Maiduguri, he refused. Can such a VP protect Christians?

“Zulum, for instance, is notorious for doing nothing after the demolition of the EYN Church in Moduganari, wherein his agents killed one of the protesting Christians. Shettima is remembered for neglecting Christian communities. Can they protect Christians as VP?”

People that assert that tinubu can never win the presidency are still the most worried about his choice of a running mate!

Just for political relevance, Reno should keep shu

As in eh...

And not that they have plans to vote him o.

If Tinubu is wise, he ought to go for a middle belt christian candidate.

This would see him consolidate votes in that region plus that of his SW which from current INEC voter register is enough to win a four-way presidential contest .

Obi will get the SE and SE only.

Leaving Atiku and Kwankwaso to slug it out in the north .

The decider for Atiku and Tinubu will be the SS where Atiku will definitely win.

Next year's election will he decided by the middle belt. If Tinubu is wise he should pick a running mate from that region and preferrably a christian.

Lol.

I just dey laugh. These people want to Islamise Nigeria. It won’t work

Atiku win south south? You must be dreaming.. I come from Rivers State and the Obi wave here is massive ,same as edo, delta, bayelsa,calabar and akwaibom.. A wike vice would have done a little damage to obi in Rivers State.

Okoro stop claiming Niger Delta. Isn't it enough that you are now parading yourselves as Jews and now want to add ND as part of your many larps?

Obi or any Igbo candidate is DOA in the SS. We have suffered enough and still suffering from your greed and tribalism in the old eastern region.

FCK off with your Biafra detoxification Obidient movement.

Where did I support the Gbana Ahmed?

Because I stated that your disObifient movement is DOA in the Niger Delta in responding your lies that the SS will vote Peter Obi over Atiku?

How is that an indicator that I am in support of the BAT?

You igbos and yprubas are the most idiotic people on the planet with thus your constant small dik contest.

dear Yoruba Christians
Stop sleeping on the bicycle.
stop falling for their deceit
they know what they're doing
that's why they ganged up against a more qualified yoruba Christian Osibanjo and put a corrupt old, useless drug baron because he's a Yoruba Muslim.
ask yourself why Tinubu and not Osinbajo?
they're now painting an obvious black to become white.
after their mission they'll come with "yoruba Muslim and Christian are one" to confuse you.
the same people that was so determined to take up a mere hijab case upto supreme Court level is telling you that religion doesn't matter in South West.
they're now gradually pushing for Sharia and also determined about it.
when they achieved it they'll come back and tell you that it doesn't matter.
Yoruba Christians wake up
stop falling for this daylight deceit.
these guys doesn't rate you infact they rate a Muslim from the North more than you people, that's why most of them are clamoring for Muslim/Muslim ticket because they knew that, they will still deceive you guys that religion doesn't matter.
if they rate you and care about your feelings and vote why Muslim/Muslim ticket?
they're more concerned about pacifying their more closer brothers in the north than you people even when the north no even rate them.
they know that you guys can be easily be deceived by telling you that igbos are your enemy while they're the one sabotaging yoruba interests truly.
Dear real Omoluabis wake up and smell the coffee.
be wise like a serpent.

Yoruba Christians ronu
God bless Yoruba Christians, traditionalists and reasonable Muslims.

God punish Tinubu urchins

ogbeni where u position, stop being a keypad warrior.. Point out your location.. Any where for Niger delta, if truly you dey Niger delta.. I am ready to trace you.. I have nothing to prove to you.. Just do as I say ogbeni.

Tinubu picking a Muslim vice will simply confirm that Yoruba Muslims are not Muslims enough compared to their northern counterparts. Reason why a Yoruba Muslim cannot lead a northern Muslim in the mosque.

It will also mean that Christian votes are inconsequential. In the voice of bubu "97/5%. It will also mean that Muslims cannot vote a Christian.

Muslim/Muslim or not, he has a really difficult decision to make.

It's just a shame that every decision that concerns us as a people must first be pleasing to the Muslims up north, which are mostly uneducated. How do we move forward?

As for those that are saying we should look at competence instead of religion, why did they talk about zoning during the primaries?

Or better still, why can't Tinubu find a competent Christian from the south?

At end of the day, Atiku and Tinubu should not even be options.

Tinubu should pick anyone he wants. Nigerian Christians are not that smart. They mostly voted Buhari in 2015. I'm sure many APC Christians and hungry urchins will still vote Tinubu.

Yoruba Christians should wake up. Islam and jihad is already at their door. These people do not have peace within them but would pretend that they're with you when still minority. When they feel they have gotten the population, they move into Jihadi mode. That's why they're decimating Benue, Plateau and Southern Kaduna. The next phase of the ethnic cleansing would be Yorubaland if Yoruba people are foolishh enough to vote in another Muslim president the way they did in 2015 hoping that their Christian
