Shettimo: Passion Not Compassion – Blueprint Newspapers Limited

From the scrum of Gombe, to the resignation of Ganduje, and more recently the “Coalation Dramedy”, the vice -president Kashim Shettimo was the subject of the public speech, also tending to his release on Monday 22 August 2022, at the annual NBA conference where he was scarred for his doctorate, wearing sneakers with a red leg that was released that he escaped a reduced tie that he got around that he got around that he got out. At the time it was the policy galore and almost any “fool” could grab the titles and play all the bells unnecessarily. Sneakers with a dress were a trend for a while, hell, even Zabanriga with sneaker is fashionable. Shettimo had this type of attention in 2014 when he went on national TV while the terrorists invaded Maiduguri during the Goodluck Jonathan administration. His cry of help fell on almost deaf ears and emitted his emotions on national TV. On May 7, 2014, I wrote a piece in newspapers of the project entitled “Poor Shettimo, poor State Borno, poor, poor, poor!”, Which has captured the anguish and pains of that period.

More attention has come to Shettimo after the famous journalist Jaafar Jaafar shot his save from the north-western den of political dichotomy between the North-West and the North-East, looking for support for Shettimo for compassionate land, diminishing Shettimo in practice. Shettimo was a hero of the war time because as Governor of Borno, a state that suffered the most for the waves of terrorism that hit Nigeria, was quite courageous to undertake projects in the state of Borno. A number of projects were well covered in my piece published in Blueprint Newspapers on April 28, 2019, entitled “Shettimo: a War Time Master Builder”, and in a subsequent in the leadership newspapers published on May 24, 2019, entitled, “A War Time Master Builder does it again!” President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was in Borno in 2017 to commission 432 resettment houses in 13 villages, as a special guest of honor to the governor Kashim Shettimo. Two years later, the former president Muhammadu Buhari was also in Borno on April 25, 2019, to commission a 40 MW solar plant with a capacity to expand to 150 MW, also built by Shettimo. He also built an asphalt plant along the notorious luggage road. The housing legacy of Kashim Shettimo in the state of Borno boasts about 31,747 houses completely both in the capital of the state of Maiduguri and in the war devastated.

Despite the war, the governor Shettimo was also able to build several health centers including an ultra-modern hospital with 250 beds, primary and secondary schools ultra-modern, urban and rural housing properties, a state university and an industrial center. The highlight of the visit of the former Buhari president to Borno was the launch of the industrial hub which consists: a tomato transformation system, a waste reciponing system, a biscuits production system, pvc pipes and drips of irrigation pipes for the production of production systems, among the best production schools, the best for the production of tags, their best carpet production systems, the tables that have the tables Completed the Tenice Caval production systems in 2019! Shettimo being in the vice -presidential nomination competition in 2022 has never been for compassionate reasons. He was an artist and a good race companion. He was also chosen because he worked hard for the emergence of the president Tinubu as the presidential candidate of the APC. He was at the forefront in the struggle, launching against part of the Cabala of the Buhari administration who worked hard to stop Asiwaju. In another piece entitled “Shettimo: the Jagaba’s campaign of Jagaban, published on May 20, 2022, I mentioned Shettimo’s speech in support of the ASIWAJU candidacy. At the Bola Ahmed Tinubu supports support for support support conference, Shettimo, Shettimo, Shettimo, Shettically, was practically one of the DGs of the Tinubu campaign for the presidential ticket of the APC.

Last but not least is the Palaver of the coalition which also directed its energy to Shettimo. Datti Ahmed, one of the figures of the coalition which is obviously not in the running for the presidential nominations or vice -president in the new ADC has arrived for Shettimo. It could be a victim of the exchange of the coalition around the former governor Peter Obi as a candidate for a possible single mandate. If this happens, as as a ticket is dropped. What does it do? He begins to find his square root. As with all internal displaced politicians, he will try to present a tent with other parts or groups. He has already launched sprinkling in the coalition agenda, stating that the coalition will not be successful if some people do not drop their ambitions and will put Nigeria first. Are you trying to go to the party to power to give him shelter? His case could be that of “movements externally”, “EDP”, because neither the opposition nor the party in power really evaluate it. At the end of the day, all attempts at the politicians of the north-west plot of replacing Shettimo can only be fodder for its success while continuing to make stronger. So far, there is no body language, nor a spoken or written by President Tinubu to suggest that it is the end of the road to Shettimo by 2027 Therefore, the dynamics that push Shettimo in vice -president are still very at stake and if God will do so, his detractors and their buffering would serve only to Shettimo, increasing his popularity and possibilities as appointed vice -president even more practicable and formidable for President Tinubu in 2027.
