The All Progressives Congress (APC), on Friday, felicitated with its vice presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, Kashim Shettima, on his 56th birthday anniversary.
The APC, in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, in Abuja, described Shettima as a bridge builder and a patriot.
The party said that Shettima, through his progressive politics, had made friends across all the country’s geo-political and religious divides.
The party stated that the former Governor of Borno is a key asset needed for the important task of achieving a harmonious and prosperous Nigeria.
The statement reads in part: As a former governor, senator and banker, Shettima’s administrative and professional accomplishments have set him apart.
“He is eminently capable and ready for the job of running mate to our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in the upcoming 2023 general elections,
“As he marks his 56th birthday anniversary, we pray that God grants Sen. Shettima wisdom and many more healthy years in service of our country and humanity.”
