Running Mate: Tinubu may be stuck with Masari

Indications emerged that the All Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in may run with a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

It was gathered that party leaders will use the Sallah holidays to iron out the issue and come up with a position next week.

With time running out, sources told Sunday Vanguard that Tinubu might be stuck with Alhaji Kabiru Masari as his running mate following a court order restraining APC and Tinubu from substituting him.

A day after June 17 deadline set by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC for parties to submit the names of their presidential and vice-presidential candidates, the APC submitted Masari’s name as a placeholder.

Tinubu has until July 15 to make the substitution.
