Kashim Shettima, the running partner of Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the upcoming elections, is currently trending on Twitter due to his attire at the NBA Colloquium in Lagos.
The incident took place in Lagos State today, August 22.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu's running mate for vice president of the All Progressive Congress (APC) political party was spotted looking sharp in a suit and sneakers.
Nigerians criticized Shettima's clothing choices, claiming that if he couldn't even get his own appearance straight, how can he possibly address Nigeria's problems?
Nigerian politician and accountant Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu (born March 29, 1952) held the offices of Lagos State Governor from 1999 to 2007 and Senator for Lagos West during the Third Republic's brief existence. He was selected as the All Progressives Congress's candidate for the 2023 Nigerian presidential election in June 2022. Tinubu was born and raised in the southwest of Nigeria. After moving to the United States, he attended Chicago State University to study accounting. After moving back to Nigeria in the early 1980s, he worked as an accountant for Mobil Nigeria before joining politics in 1992 as the Social Democratic Party's candidate for the Lagos West senate seat. After the tyrannical Sani Abacha disbanded the Senate in 1993, Tinubu joined the National Democratic Coalition movement and started advocating for the restoration of democracy. Despite being driven into exile in 1994, Tinubu returned when Abacha's death in 1998 signaled the start of the Fourth Republic.
Affidavits under oath attest that Tinubu was born on March 29, 1952. Abibatu Mogaji, his mother, was a trader who rose to become the Iyaloja of Lagos State. He attended Children's Home School in Ibadan and St. John's Primary School in Aroloya, Lagos. Later, in 1975, Tinubu traveled to the United States to pursue his studies at Chicago's Richard J. Daley College and Chicago State University. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from the university in 1979. Throughout his political career, disagreements concerning Tinubu's age, educational background, and name arose as a result of contradictory documentation and assertions from the politician himself. While there are unproven allegations that Tinubu was born in present-day Osun State with a different name to a different family, the main dispute was started by inconsistencies and lies in the certificates Tinubu filed to the Independent National Electoral Commission. In response, Tinubu asserted that Tokunbo Afikuyomi unintentionally fabricated the 1999 submission and the institution had made an error. Tinubu's records at Chicago State University showed that his birth year was 1954, not 1952, and that he attended Government College, Ibadan for secondary school. [ In accordance with earlier sworn papers and public pronouncements, Tinubu failed to list the primary or secondary school he attended in documentation submitted to INEC for the presidential election in 2022, reigniting the debate.
