Kaduna-based Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has accused Bola Tinubu of deceit.
He said that Tinubu’s same-faith ticket was a fraud.
Gumi, who spoke with reporters on the 2023 general elections and state of the nation, in his residence said Nigeria needs an experienced politician to get out of the wood.
According to him, it is not proper for the APC presidential candidate to say it is his turn be the next Nigeria President.
This was as he maintained that the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the ruling party was unnecessary.
He said of Tinubu that “it is not proper for him to say it is his turn. There is no question to say it is my turn. Don’t say it is my turn because if people like you, they will vote for you.
“The Muslim-Muslim ticket is unnecessary. We all know, that all these politicians are looking for votes. The Muslim-Muslim ticket is, let me use Hausa language, is wayo (deceit). It is not religion.
“Whether it will work or not, I don’t want to prophesy, but there are a lot of hurdles. In fact, all political parties have hurdles. Muslim-Muslim ticket is going to be a laboratory test for others to emulate or not.”
