Alhaji Kashim Shettima, Nigeria’s Vice President is fifty-eight (58) years old today.
He has ordered that no one should roll out the drums or go on a media frenzy to celebrate his new age.
Media reports indicate however, that all may not be well at the centre of the Three Arms Zone following speculations about a meltdown interpersonal relations between Alhaji Shettima and his boss, President Bola Tinubu.
This rumour about frosty relations gave rise to a spirited effort by Stanley Nkwocha, the spokesperson of Alhaji Shettima, who tried to douse the alleged tension by issuing a media statement on Sunday, describing the speculated crisis in relations between the two leaders as “mendacious propaganda.”
Calling the development as false, the spokesperson said the rumour about crisis as “merely an illusionary strife and smear campaign targeted at tarnishing the cordial relationship between Tinubu and Shettima.”
“In a political landscape where loyalty is often tested, Vice President Shettima stands out as a beacon of dedication and commitment to his principal, President Tinubu. His unwavering support and teamwork demonstrate a refreshing shift towards harmonious collaboration, setting a positive tone for their administration,” Mr. Nkwocha asserted.
