A Certified True copy (CTC) of Kashim Shettima‘s voluntary resignation letter as the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Borno Central senatorial District was on Wednesday admitted in evidence by the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC).

The letter, dated July 6, 2022, was tendered among other documents by lawyer to President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima, Wole Olanipekun (SAN) at the opening of their defence in the petition by Peter Obi and the Labour Party (LP).

The petitioners are challenging the competence of the joint ticket of Tinubu and Shettma, claiming that Shettima had double nomination.

The letter is intended to prove that the Vice President resigned his senatorial candidacy before his selection as the vice presidential candidate of the APC.
