THE All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Kaduna State, Malam Uba Sani, has assured the party’s presidential candidate of the most votes from the state.
The Senator representing Kaduna Central District Sani gave the assurance today at the official inauguration of the vice-presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima as the chairman of Arewa Women for Tinubu (AWT) organised by the support group.
The lawmaker also debunked media rumours of a cold war between Shettima and the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.
“I want to also deliver a goodwill message from my brother, Governor Nasir Ahmed El-Rufai of Kaduna State. I want to also say here that Governor El-Rufai has total support for our brother, His Excellency, Senator Kashim Shettima; we have worked together, we are brothers and we are friends,” he said.
Uba Sani recalled that when the news broke out that Shettima had been selected as Tinubu’s running mate, El-Rufai was the first to try to call and wish him well.
Unfortunately, he said a lot of people, obviously ignorant of the cordiality between El-Rufai and Shettima spread false reports in the press.
“I assure you, and stand to be quoted anywhere, anytime that Kaduna State would deliver the highest votes for the Tinubu presidency in 2023,” Senator Uba said.
