Former Abia State’s Governor, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, says the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu should pick a Muslim as his running ahead of the 2023 Presidential poll to secure his victory.
Kalu who was answering questions from Journalists on Wednesday was reacting to the criticisms against a possible Muslim-Muslim ticket by the APC.
He said, “Do you want me to speak the truth if I am in Ahmed Bola Tinubu’s situation. I will go Muslim-Muslim ticket. The most important thing is for the party to win. We should stop all this rubbish about whether you put a Christian, after all the wife is a pastor and she is already like a deputy president.”
He also said, “Let me tell you, in my house, my wife is the head of the house in reality. Even you men that are here, now that your wives aren’t here, they are the head. Like if I wear this cloth, my wife will tell me ‘My dear, this cloth is not good to remove.
“Your wife will tell you you are supposed to eat Akara and Akamu, whether you argue with her, you must take that Akamu and your wife wants you to pay children school fees, whether you argue or not, you must pay.
“The Christians should relax because Tinubu’s wife is a pastor and once she’s a pastor we are protected because she’s not a housewife. She has political knowledge.”
