There are indicators that Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje, has been penciled down as running mate to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2023.
The party picked Ganduje, as the preferred running mate for the party’s presidential candidate ahead of the 2023 presidential elections.
This revelation was contained in a press statement issued by the Director General of Ganduje’s Support Group, Comrade Suleiman Magaji, and made available to newsmen in Abuja on Wednesday.
The statement further revealed that the APC National Working Committee narrowed down the choice of Tinubu’s running mate to the incumbent Kano State Governor on the basis of loyalty, commitment and infrastructural development of his state.
The statement, however, acknowledged that the issue of religion played out eloquently during the selection process, but noted that Nigerians are more interested in developmental stride rather than religion affairs.
While commending the National Working Committee of the party for the choice made thus far, the group called on all party faithfuls to support the duo to enable the party emerge victorious in the presidential elections.
“It is time we close rank to ensure victory for all our candidates from the ward levels to the presidency,” the statement added.
