Spokesman of the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign council Festus Keyamo has recreated an outfit which the party’s vice-presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, wore to the opening ceremony of the Nigerian Bar Association’s annual general conference.
Shettima wore a dark suit, a red tie and a pair of sneakers to the conference on Monday in Lagos.
His critics accused him of lacking style over a viral photo of him seated with his suit buttoned and his tie bulging.
Mr Keyamo took to Twitter early Tuesday to react to Shettima’s critics.
He said, “Now, since they think the issues of Nigeria are three buttons, a pair of sneakers and a long tie, let’s help make them the real issues!”
At the conference, Shettima said he and the party’s presidential candidate Bola Tinubu would begin work immediately if they are elected next year.
“Nigerians should ‘follow the man wey know the road.’ From day one, we will hit the ground running. We’ll promptly address the issue of the economy, ecology, and security.
“And we have the antecedents. I built some of the best schools in Nigeria. Go to Borno and see wonders; you will never believe that it is a state in a state of war. So, we are going to replicate our achievements in Lagos, in Borno and some of the frontline states so that our nation will be a better place,” he said.
