FIN president, Sheikh Muhammad-Arabi Ahmad Abdulfathi, announced the support for Tinubu/Shettima Presidential ticket during the group fundraising to cater for thousands of orphans who lost their parents in the various terrorist attacks across the country on Thursday at the National University Commission Hall, Abuja.

He said their support for Tinubu/Shettima ticket was not based on his religious affiliations, but competence as well as track records.

According to him, Tinubu and his running-mate, Kashim Shettima who was the former governor of Borno State remained the best choice for Nigeria in 2023 and urged his members across the country to vote en masse for APC Presidential candidate in the general election.

Early APC Presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu who was the chief launcher and chairman of the special fundraising for the building of an orphanage and skills acquisition centre, donated the sum of N25 million to the project.

Mr Tinubu’s donation was announced by his running mate, Kashim Shettima who also donated the sum of N10m to the project.

Shettima, who represented his principal as the chairman of the fundraising, said the donation was not to secure the support of the pioneer Muslim group, but a sadaqatul jariyah (charity) that will not only benefit them in this life but after their death.

“Caring for orphans is a significant part of Islam, orphans are mentioned 52 times in the Holy Quar’an and Allah describes the righteous in Paradise as being those who took care of orphans during their worldly life, this encapsulate the importance of caring for orphans as the best investment for here and hereafter. It is not about the beautiful car, houses and power we acquired in this world,” Shettima said.

The Kaduna State APC governorship candidate, Senator Uba Sani, also donated N20m to the building of an orphanage and a skills acquisition centre to be named after the venerable Islamic leader, late Sheikh Ibrahim Inyass and will be situated in Zaria, Kaduna State.
