SHOCKING Reason Tinubu Will DROP Shettima in 2027 – Reuben Abati Begs "Don't Do It!"

‪@pauluwadima‬

In this explosive video, we dive deep into the brewing political drama ahead of the 2027 Nigerian presidential election: Is President Bola Ahmed Tinubu planning to drop Vice President Kashim Shettima as his running mate?
Renowned journalist Reuben Abati, in his powerful ThisDay newspaper column titled "The Importance of Kashim Shettima" (published January 2026), passionately argues against any move to replace Shettima. Abati highlights Shettima's critical role in securing North-East votes, his loyalty, competence as a former Borno Governor and Senator, and the risks of disrupting a winning ticket. He warns that dumping Shettima could be a "grave political miscalculation" for the APC, potentially costing massive Northern support.
We also expose the backstory: The Borno APC's fierce reaction in Gombe last year (June 2025) after North-East stakeholders endorsed Tinubu for a second term but omitted Shettima—leading to chaos and warnings like "No Shettima, No APC in the North East." As speculation grows about Tinubu believing he can "do without" Shettima, this video uncovers the real reasons behind the tension, including regional balance, Muslim-Muslim ticket debates, and loyalty concerns.
