The event took place at the Yar’Adua Centre in the Central Business District of Abuja.

A controversial video of All Progressives Congress vice presidential candidate condemning plans to restructure the country has trended on Twitter.

The former Governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima in the video said, “to hell with restructuring.”

According to reports, he made disclosure at the book launch of a former Minister of Youths and Sports Development, Bolaji Abdullahi, on November 30, 2017.

The event took place at the Yar’Adua Centre in the Central Business District of Abuja.

Shettima said that if jobs are provided and other sectors of the economy, especially the education sector are developed, the clamour for restructuring will stop.

“People are talking about artificial intelligence, other nations are talking about nano technology or robotics engineering but unfortunately, the topical issue in Nigeria is restructuring. Restructuring my foot! To hell with restructuring.

“Let us improve on governance, let us work for the people, invest in education, create jobs for our people, this madness will stop,” he said.

Recall that several Nigerians including ethnic organisations like the Ohanaeze Ndigbo and the Afenifere have demanded the restructuring of Nigeria, saying it was the way to resolve many of the challenges facing the country.

Shettima is a time bomb that must never make it to Aso rock. The ignorance of 2015 that brought buhari to power cannot be used this time.

Tinubu and Shettima videos are all over social media to help Nigerians know why they must not be voted in .

@von_Bismack

You might be thinking that Tinubu is bad until you listen to his running mate Shettima. Man is as empty as a Carton.

@IamTheIroko

The Shettima video where he said to hell with restructuring should put to bed any conversation about that dead on arrival APC ticket.

Two hopeless candidates with zero value....

@ayemojubar

Even if nothing happened to Tinubu, someone like Shettima has exhibited enough dangerous signals revealing that he has the capacity to rebelliously lead a movement in the House and the Senate to invoke Section 143 against Tinubu on health grounds.

That Shettima video on restructuring ALONE should be the end of this BATSHIT ticket in Southern Nigeria and the Middle Belt.

But my people perish for lack of wisdom.

@The_Seeker76

Kashim Shettima is definitely the worst type of Islamic fanatic with a "born to rule" mentality.

It would be a HUGE DISASTER if this Boko Haram apologist is allowed to find his way into Aso Rock in any capacity beyond being a protester at the gates

@adeyanjudeji

The idea of a Tinubu presidency scares me. If anything happens to him, Shettima will be president. That’s a man at the Centre of Chibok girls and many allegations of Boko Haram ties. 🤦‍♂️

@renoomokri

Kashim Shettima in 2017 “To hell with restructuring!”

Today, Tinubu is campaigning to restructure Nigeria. No be juju be that?
