The vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Kashim Shettima has urged Nigerians to brace up for a tough time in 2023.

Shettima dropped the hint on Thursday in Abuja at an event organised by APC Professionals Forum with the theme, ‘Dissecting the Asiwaju Manifesto’.

He warned that the country would go through some rough waters in the coming months and years.

The vice presidential candidate said while he is an incurable optimist, he is also a realist, saying the nation cannot shield itself from the global realities and from the challenges in Ukraine.

Shettima stated: “We’re going to go through some rough waters in the coming months and years. This is why leadership is very crucial. 2023 will be a watershed election in the history of this country.”

The former Borno State governor added: “What are the options available? Our political space is filled with a lot of very careful snails. We have to provoke conversation without descending so low to engage in malicious concoctions or [casting] dubious aspersions on personalities.”

Shettima also took a swipe at the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, saying: “Peter “Gringori” Obi is my friend but “Gringori” has absolutely nothing to offer apart from dubious statistics. So [in] the choice before us, there is a difference between daylight and darkness.”

DadaHammed:
We know you guys have destroyed the country almost beyond redemption, President Peter Obi is coming to clean your mess.

Hezzyluv:


Even if Peter Obi comes, he would not find it that easy.

DamnnNiggarr:



No words of hope from them to Nigerians.
No plans to tackle the said hard times that may befall Nigerians.
He's just saying what they planned for Nigerians; hardship, so that tomorrow, they will say that they said it or that Nigerians know about it.

This is just a pre-prophecy to Nigerians but unfortunately, many Nigerians will still fell to read the handwriting on the wall.

DadaHammed:


He is the only Nigerians trust now. Not that thieving old cargo who will just relocate the Central Bank to his personal house in Bourdillon and start printing naira notes like tissue paper. God forbid Thiefnubuu. Amen.

DamnnNiggarr:
Be prepared for tough time in 2023 – Shettima to Nigerians

It’s no rocket science. Tough decisions would have to be taken, like removal of petroleum products subsidies, harmonization of the exchange rates of the naira with major international currencies ,to patronize made-in-Nigeria goods, debt management, privatization of some federal government assets,etc
Each time some of these decisions were taken in the past we would all take to the streets to protest against it, but it has now come to the point that it is inevitable.

In 2015, I supported GEJ, He lost.
In 2019, I supported ATIKU, He lost.
In 2023, I am Supporting TINUBU.

You're a g0at for quoting me and referring to me as a kid. If you can't hold a meaningful conversation with someone, just overlook his comment or better Still, drop your opinion and move away. I don't normally reply such mentions but I may be older than your oldest sibling.

seems you love smooth talks like what Buhari gave you in 2015. Man told you he's optimistic and realistic. Why don't you want to hear the truth. People just love lies. The same lie APC gave in 2015 despite low reserve and low price of oil.
Use your head, he could still tell you all would be well and you'll have nothing to criticize him about but he's telling you the truth.
Subsidy is already destined to be removed next year. Even your Obi dodged the fact when asked.

You better brace up or else con men would keep conning you like Atiku.
