The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has knocked All Progressives Congress (APC) vice presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, for trying to share the stage of fame with former President Goodluck Jonathan after he allegedly “sabotaged and frustrated Jonathan’s administration in its effort to curb insecurity in Borno State” IgbereTV reports
Shettima was governor of Borno from May 2011 to May 2019 whilst Jonathan was Nigeria’s President between 2010 and 2015. Shettima and APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, had during the week attended the 70th birthday event of the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Mathew Kukah, and they posed in a photograph with the revered cleric.
But the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, in a statement on Thursday slammed the duo for their “disgraceful and hypocritical” act after allegedly vilifying Jonathan.
The PDP spokesman also said it is shameful that Tinubu and Shettima now distance themselves from the “abysmal failure” of President Muhammadu Buhari
