The Progressive Governors Forum says it is happy with the choice of Senator Kashim Shettima as the running mate of Bola Ahmad Tinubu for the upcoming 2023 presidential elections.
The Forum stated this on Monday, shortly after a closed door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, who is in his Daura country home for the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
The governors said they were pleased with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s choice of Kassim Shettima as his running mate in the 2023 presidential election.
The governors described Shettima as one of Nigeria’s finest whose selection as a presidential running mate is a collective decision.
The Governors present in Daura were Aminu Bello Masari of Katsina State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State, Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State, Hope Uzodimma of Imo state, Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, Simon Lalong of Plateau State and Abdullahi Sule of Nassarawa State.
Bagudu who is Chairman of the Progressive Governors, said a Tinubu-Shettima presidency would complement the gains of the Buhari presidency over the last seven years.
He added that they are working together towards victory in the upcoming Governorship Election in Osun State.
