Edwin Clark, former Federal Commissioner for Information, says the nomination of Senator Kashim Shettima, as the running mate to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in a multi-ethnic and multi-religious country threatens Nigeria’s unity.

In a statement on Monday, the Convener of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) said the APC presidential candidate’s decision could be pointers to the confirmation and actualisation of such rumours to Islamise Nigeria as a country.

“On the reasons adduced by Alhaji Tinubu on why he chose Kashim Shettima as Running-mate, is the APC Presidential Flag bearer telling Nigerians that there’s no Christians in the APC from the north who are “competent, capable and reliable?

“There are rumours of an attempt to Islamise the country. Are all these pointers to the confirmation and actualisation of such rumours?”

The elder statesman lamented that Tinubu’s decision will worsen the sharp division presently in Nigeria.

Part of the statement read: “I feel threatened for Nigeria.In compliance with Constitutional provisions of inclusiveness, the position of the President and Vice President, have always been occupied by practitioners of the two major religions, to ensure balancing.

Clark added that Tinubu’s choice of Shettima is not inclusive and definitely not good for a secular state like Nigeria.

“There’s presently a sharp division in the country, even on religious lines, and all patriots are seeking ways to salvage the situation.

“Therefore, Tinubu’s decision to take a fellow Muslim(Shettima) as his running mate, will further worsen the situation in the country. He should know that patriotism is a quality of a good leader,” the statement read.

APC appears determined to be on a mission far from the welfare of the citizenry. With all their rants in the year 25, they are supposed to be apologizing to Nigerians concerning the destruction of the country. If they have conscience, they won't be campaigning in this country.

Truly he's right.

Wisdom. APC clearly does not mean well for Nigerians. Na so so suffering and agbado everywhere.

By choosing a Northern Muslim, Tinubu made a calculated move to win power. Yes, it may be insensitively audacious but he has exercised his political right as a presidential candidate. The array of candidates and their support-bases drove him into this gamble.

Right now, it is up to Nigerians to speak their minds on this combination come 2023 election. If majority reject him and his VP candidate, he will crawl back to Oluremi at Bourdillon. But, if he wins, then the gamble paid off.

No secular state in the history of mankind has ever prospered and survived for long where the political class constitutes the conscience of the state. Tinubu is living up to a politician - politicians think of the next election - while Edwin Clark is living up to a statesman - statesmen think of the next generation. So, for the former, it is all about expediency, while for the latter, it is all about principle.

The end goal is to islamize the country. Tinubu have activated the supreme council of Sharia for election. Tinubu represents a continuation of buhari induced suffering.

Could what this
fendi guy saying since be true?

But wise men from the East have seen this from the word go but blind people said they hate Fulani people and other rubbish talks...even the failure that bihari is has been foreseen by the wise men from the East but fools went ahead to elect him not once but twice and now they are suffering for that foolery.

And funny enough another set of retards are gearing up to market another disaster in the name of tribal and religious bigotry, same parochial thinking that got the country into present misery.

Clark might not be far from the truth. Atiku eye no still good that guy look like who is sponsoring a terrorists groups but he is too business minded to rule this country he eye dey NNPC badly . obi is not a saint either but the lesser Evil.

On Lagos Economical state remember Lagos was our capital before or was move to Abuja so it has always predestined that way the likes of Fashola and ambode made Lagos what of is today not Tunubu. So don't be carried away by Lagos achievements so far

Let go for the lesser Evil Obi I thnk churches should start directing their members who to vote for

Nonsense. Wrong analysis! Both of them are actors struggling to attain a common goal at different levels. To hell with all current Nigeria leaders /politicians & nepa officials

Tinubu is within his rights to choose any qualified Nigerian to be his VP, you can protest against his choice with your PVC, which is expected of every right thinking Christians.

It is that simple.

That's just the truth

Vg

The truth is tinubu will fail woefully mark my word he might have a chance maybe in oduduwa republic

MUSLIM MUSLIM ticket is DEAD ON ARRIVAL

Let stupid selfish ambition not set Nigeria on fire

CAN and Christian leaders… Sunday na church. Begin a massive campaign against this evil plot. They didn’t choose a Christian to be president or vice because over the years, the have incapacitated the northern Christians. This is a consequence of past actions.

The results for allowing a Muslim Muslim ticket will show in a few years to come. By then it would have been extremely late

I have nothing against any religion but let’s not cross the line of justice and equity that has kept us one all these years. May the labor of our heroes past not be in vain

Not far from the truth

Peter Obi as a matter of urgency should
address these allegations because they're very weighty and I know a couple of them to be true
I got this on African History Archive

More secrets of Mr Peter Obi unveiled.
Tufiakwa
By Igbo Kwenu


1. Those who knew Peter Obi will attest to the fact that he has been a drug dealer beginning from his days as an undergraduate at UNN. He was hardly attending lectures and only managed to graduate with a third class in Philosophy after spending 12 years in the University.

2. His brother in-law who incidentally is one of the hirelings used by him for his nefarious drug trafficking business is currently languishing in jail in far away London. This is the major cause of strain between Obi and his in-laws. It is on record that his closeness to Dubem Obazie was the because he Dubem served jail term for drug trafficking because of Peter.

3. Obi should explain his relationship with former Military Administrator, Governor lbim Princewill and Col Earnest Kizito Attah of Cross River State whom he helped as a conduit to fleece Cross River State government thus contributing to the under development of the state.

4. Obi should explain to Ndi Anambra the
circumstances surrounding his father's
death which remains his best kept secret. Before then we can reveal that Obi's father was drowned to death by Obi's associates in the drug trade whom he short-changed in a business deal prompting the mafias to kill the old man whom they drowned bounded hands and feet with bricks round his neck.

5. Given the level of insecurity in Anambra state, "Saint" Peter Obi should explain how he expends his security vote since it is on record that he collects over 470 million naira per month as security vote (220 million naira from Local Government and 250 million Naira
from the state FAC accounts)

6. Just as Peter Obi professes his Catholicism for political expediency, we ask him to summon the moral courage and explain to Catholic faithful his relationship with the Olumba Olumba Obu (000) Cult sect where his wife is a known member. It is also on record that Peter Obi met the wife at a night club in Auchi. The lady had two children from two different men -an Albino and a Ghanaian. The affirmed Catholic is yet
to wed his wife in the church.

7. Obi is yet to explain the mystery behind the 250 million naira that was found in the possession of his aides. He is yet to produce the contractor and publish the contractual agreement that stipulates that this very contractor will be paid in cash and also a reference to any other known precedents. Not even the famous late Barkin Zuwo of Kano State paid contractors in cash.

8. Obi should explain why he has continued to loot the resources of the state using his brother, Ndibe Obi, Ejike Onwusogbulu and a certain Chidi Agbapu -a Lagos based stock broker as a conduit for money laundering while the vouths in Anambra remain unemployed;

9. Obi was elected governor on the platform of APGA and it is on record that he never convened an APGA meeting thereby destroying the entire party structure. Obi should explain to party faithfuls and loyalists why he destroyed the party;

10. Obi should explain to Ndi Anambra what happened to the state local government allocations and why Anambra under Obi is the only state in Nigeria without elected local government officers in place?

In view of the foregoing, we demand his
immediate resignation or face further
disclosure of his criminal past and present.

They are all birds of a feather

Whatever, you all should do as you please, my sister just got a teaching job in Canada, my younger bro is heading to Senegal for spare parts bizness year end. nah only me, my mum, my husband and 2kids remain, we are looking at Netherland, make unah destroy the country kpam kpam.
Next year if another oldie enter aso rock nah japa, as time no dey.
Mtcheeeeew

Absolutely true

Baba go and rest jor

tinubu choose a fanatic

What did Osibanjo do to stop Islamization of Nigeria in his 7 years plus as a pastor? Religion has so much divided us that it will become a time bomb in the next few years and our politicians ain't helping matters which is not fair. Fanaticism in some parts of this country is a canker worm that should be but off and all hands must be on deck but we ain't just helping each other.

When I remember typing this in darkness, I feel all the politicians should be thrown into a cage and dumped in the middle of the Mediterranean.

The same criminals that fought the military for democracy have now become worse than the devil.

Which way my brother

South south and south east wont vote Tinubu. What do you expect him to do Nigeria cannot be islamised by Tinubu lol. His wife is a pastor

PigTormentor:
Drunkard old fool still spewing trash as usual.
This old hag was happy when Jona-daft allowed him and his fellow drunks to control Nigeria into their own pockets.

Abi
Nuhu Ribadu and Fola Adeola(GTB CEO) Ticket back then
They didn't talk about it in 2011 under ACN

Now they know APC is going to win...Tears have been shedding among them as if nah Religion be the competency

What's now the gain from chosing our own Pastor as deputy

Both Buhari and Osinbajo are incompetent Extra

The way some people's are condemning Muslim/Muslim tickets and insulting Islam would only generate more support and sympathy from other Muslim who were not in
support of APC before.
One thing many people don't understand is that,the more you insult politicians base on
their religiouss and tribe the more support and sympathy they would get from their people's.

Ogogoro views..

Pointer ko...Traffickor nii.

You said One Nigeria.. Enjoy it Pa

Tinubu the terrorists!
