The choice of running mates by the presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rival, Atiku Abubakar, has dominated public discourse in the last few days with majority of Nigerians expressing reservation about pairing of two individuals of same faith by the two parties.
Uzodimma ,who spoke with State House correspondents after a meeting between the APC governors and President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, said the controversy being generated over the choice of the running mate for Tinubu was not necessary.
He added that the choice of a running mate for the APC presidential candidate would take into considerations all the indices that would promote fairness and unity of the country and not religion or faith alone
