Vice-presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Kashim Shettima has stated that the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi cannot win the 2023 elections.
Shettima has maintained that the Labour Party’s presidential candidate can only be president in Igbo land.
According to him, the former Anambra State governor has no structure and experience to rule the country if he emerges president.
The vice-presidential candidate said this in an interview on Channels TV on Friday, 15 July
According to him: “The presidential candidate of the Labour PartMrMr. Peter Obi has no political base and structure to win the next coming election in 2023. As far as I am concerned he’s politically structureless with little or no experience to lead this country.
“Nigeria requires a technocrat and a sound administrator who will continue from where President Muhammadu Buhari stopped, not someone who will come to take us back to the era of PDP. Nigerians don’t want that.
“Our candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the right person needed for this position in a time like this. He’s a unifier, an administrator, a technocrat. That is why Nigerians, both old and young are rallying around him to ensure that he wins the forthcoming election.
“Presidential position is not for the unprepared nor is it an all comers affair. Peter Obi can only become a President in Igboland but definitely not in Nigeria. Nigeria is too big for him to handle. He has no leadership ideology nor experiences like President Muhammadu and our incoming President in the person of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
