2015 PRESIDENCY: MUSLIM-MUSLIM TICKET A SENSITIVE ISSUE – ONU

Against the backdrop of the debates on the suitability or otherwise of a muslim-muslim presidential ticket in the All Progressive Congress (APC), the first executive governor of Abia State and a chieftain of the party, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu said the issue is a sensitive one that when taken must reflect the feelings of Nigerians and the current mood in the country.
Speaking to LEADERSHIP Sunday in Abuja, Onu who said even though the issue has never been formally discussed in the party, however said if it eventually comes up they would look at it based on the sensitivity and peculiarity of the Nigerian populace so that the best combination for the country would be made.
He added that the need to handle the matter carefully is further buttressed by the fact that the APC as an opposition party that is desirous of taking over the government from the PDP must be seen to be sensitive to the feelings of Nigerians.
