2023: We will Replicate Lagos, Borno Wonders – Shettima
By Ozumi Abdul,
The Vice-Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Kashim Shettima, on Monday, said he and his running mate, Bola Tinubu, will replicate the “wonders” they did in Borno and Lagos states respectively if elected in 2023.
Shettima spoke at the 2022 Nigerian Bar Association’s Annual General Conference held at the Eko Atlantic City in Lagos State.
Shettima, a former Borno governor, also, urged Nigerians to beware of the antics and ‘sophistry’ of ‘pretentious politicians’ and follow Tinubu who he said knows the way to national prosperity.
The conference with the theme ‘Bold Transitions’ began on Monday and will run until August 26.

Shettima spoke in a panel discussion immediately after Peoples Democratic Party’s Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar; and shortly before Labour Party’s Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi; addressed the gathering.
Commenting immediately after Atiku, Shettima said, “Nigerians have the capability to see through the worn-out rhetoric and sophistry of pretentious politicians. Nigerians should follow the man wey know the road. From day one, we will hit the ground running. We’ll promptly address the issue of the economy, ecology, and security.
“And we have the antecedents. I built some of the best schools in Nigeria. Go to Borno and see wonders; you will never believe that it is a state in a state of war.
“So, we are going to replicate our achievements in Lagos, in Borno and some of the frontline states so that our nation will be a better place. The fundamental issue is pure leadership”, he said.
