“We want Tinubu to succeed, that is why we have continued to tell our people the truth, when you vote Tinubu you vote Shettima. We are sensitising women and men, we have kick started the campaign, we will go to PU by PU.

“We are in Kaduna and we have selected 1.5 million people that will spearhead the campaign for Tinubu/Shettima, they are going to go from house to house and door to door. With this our movement Shettima alone is going to deliver the whole of 19 northern states for Tinubu in 2023.

“The mammoth crowd of people you are seeing here came from across the 19 northern states for this program and.because they believe in Tinubu/Shettima. Tinubu has made a wise decision  by choosing Shettima and by the Grace of God and because of the love we have for Shettima, we are going to mobilise 16 million votes across the 19 northern states for their success.”
