Keyamo defends Tinubu-Shettima ticket, says govt doesn’t exist for religious sentiments

Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, has on Monday justified the combination of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Kashim Shettima as candidates under the banner of All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 presidential election, IgbereTV reports

 

Keyamo slammed Nigerians who faulted the decision on the basis of religious plurality, stressing that government should be concerned about bringing about development to all.

The former Lagos State Governor had yesterday in Daura, Katsina State, announced the former Borno State Governor as his running mate.

He described Shettima as someone with the required competence and ability to deliver.

However, a number of Nigerians had accused the ruling party of disregarding the religious plurarity of the country with its decision.

Commenting on the development via his verified Twitter handle, Keyamo noted that the essence of government was not to comfort the egos of certain people
