President Bola Ahmed Tinubu formally renominates Vice President Kashim Shettima as his running mate for Nigeria’s 2027 presidential election, with multiple outlets reporting that the APC and Tinubu make the confirmation public through party processes and certificates. Several reports say Tinubu presents Shettima with an official nomination or running-mate certificate, after the APC confirms Shettima’s status as the party’s vice-presidential choice for the 2027 general election. The news also includes political reactions and internal party commentary. APC officials describe the retention as a strategic and confidence-based decision. APC North-West Vice Chairman Garba Datti Muhammad is cited in multiple sources as saying Tinubu keeps Shettima because of perceived loyalty, competence, and dedication to national service, and as a calculation meant to strengthen the party’s electoral prospects. Other reporting notes that the decision triggers debate and different interpretations among analysts, party supporters, and voters. Across sources, the central points are the confirmation of the Tinubu–Shettima ticket for 2027 and the public presentation of nomination documentation by Tinubu and/or APC officials.
