Some Politicians Secretly Pushing For Muslim Senate President, Speaker – Shettima | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Vice President Kashim Shettima has revealed that certain entities and individuals are pushing for a Muslim Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Shettima made the revelation in a statement released on Monday, adding that these individuals aim to mobilize their communities to cause chaos in the country.

The Vice President, who did not oppose the same faith ticket that featured him and President Bola Tinubu before the February 25 presidential election, has been vocal against the emergence of Muslims as Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Shettima explained his position on having a southern Christian as Nigerian Senate President, stating that having all four leadership positions occupied by Muslims will “validate” and give “credence” to allegations of an Islamisation agenda led by the All Progressives Congress, APC.

He urged for the need to have a diverse leadership that will represent all regions and religions in the country.

The statement read:

“The Vice President became aware that some entities and individuals were covertly pushing for Muslim leadership of the National Assembly with the sole aim of using the instance to legitimise their grievances against the Nigerian state and to prove to their communities that they have been marginalised and must rise to cause chaos.

“This sheds light on the paradoxical situation where the same lawmakers who opposed a Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket are now actively campaigning for political arrangements that would result in Muslims occupying all the highest four or five positions in the country.”
