“You are playing to the hand of agents, including my own enemies, who want to use insecurity to get rid of me. But I’m a very stubborn politician. I just refuse to go. And I will campaign for my second term.”

VP Kashim Shettima on 30th April 2026;
“We are members of one political household. We may have different aspirations, different loyalists, different zones of influence, different calculations, and different preferred outcomes. That is normal. Democracy was never designed to abolish ambition.
“It was designed to civilise it. It was designed to teach us that we can compete without destroying one another, disagree without demonising one another, and lose without setting fire to the very platform that gave us a voice.
We must, therefore, refuse the temptation to be manipulated by the media, by mischief-makers, by vested interests, or by those who profit from division.
“There will always be those who whisper that one leader has been slighted, that one bloc has been excluded, or that one interest has been buried.”
