Most Christians we consulted accept Muslim-Muslim ticket — APC chairman

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Nentawe Yilwatda, has stated that most Christians consulted by the party are comfortable with the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima. Yilwatda dismissed concerns that the religious composition of the presidency could marginalize Christians, noting that they remain represented in the administration.

He also dismissed concerns about Tinubu's health and fitness to seek re-election in 2027, maintaining that the President is physically capable. Yilwatda defended Tinubu's absence from some campaign rallies, attributing it to his constitutional responsibilities.
