2027: Atiku may pick Aregbesola as running mate if Tinubu retains Shettima - Sam Amadi

Former NERC chairman Sam Amadi suggested on X that if President Bola Tinubu retains Vice President Kashim Shettima as running mate, former VP Atiku Abubakar may consider former Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola as running mate for 2027. A possible Atiku-Aregbesola ticket would adopt a Muslim-Muslim formula and aim to attract votes from the Southwest. However, Daily Post reports that Atiku has already picked former Transportation Minister Chibuike Amaechi as his running mate.
