Kashim Shettima: Why Naja’atu Needs Assistance Due To A Progression In Her Loss Of Intellectual Functioning

Kashim Shettima: Why Naja’atu Needs Assistance Due To A Progression In Her Loss Of Intellectual Functioning
By: James Bwala
When the Boko Haram drama started, Senator Kashim Shettima was a banker looking for methods to expand his cabal within the banking industry. The Trojans of Boko Haram were constructing a history of religiously astute individuals seeking significance via their faith. But it is regrettable that this ruthless monster has the arrogance to intrude into Nigerian politics by manipulating both citizens’ political and religious life. The name Kashim Shettima was only on the badge of a state commissioner in 2009 when Mohammed Yusuf, the successor to Mohammed Ali, the actual financier of Boko Haram, was slain between Foi village in Yobe state and Alagarno in Borno state.
The source of Naja’atu Mohammed’s information about the APC vice presidential candidate is not only ridiculous but also blindly beneath a person whose character should be taken into consideration in the run-up to the general elections of 2023. Naja’atu Mohammed is the daughter of Ali Abdallah Wise, a Ghanaian immigrant who settled in Kano, Nigeria. Because she is the daughter of a trader who became a Nigerian through extended stay in this generous nation and did not make such an open claim when she dined with APC heavyweights as a member of the Police Service Commission, it says a lot about her trading. She wants to aid in the destruction of those treacherous towers, who wants to complicate Nigerian politics as evidence of their failures stares them in the face.
People who witnessed Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the APC presidential candidate, dancing to Hausa music by “Rarara” are aware that Ms. Naja’atu Mohammed was actually trading in order to make her paymasters feel better about the ongoing engagement that kept them constantly on the drawing board after the political maneuvers that made Kashim Shettima a key player in the process of reawakening the hope of a new Nigeria in February 2023.

She must have been completely out of her mind or can she tell Nigerians at what point she has a conversation with the Almighty (GOD) about how long He intends to keep Asiwaju Bola Tinubu? She said some northerners reportedly urged All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to bid for the presidency, because they want his running mate Kashim Shettima to succeed him as president. Alternatively, did she talk to Him (God) about Shettima’s life? People like Naja’atu Mohammed attempt to bring the Almighty into their mortal minds when they push the boundaries of their intellect in search of a bit of flesh.
When Naja’atu served as campaign director while working for the PDP as the “spy girl” on the canter, does she think she was not being noticed? Her interview with This Day newspaper only served to further expose her as a mole in Tinubu’s camp. Naja’atu Mohammed claims that certain northern supporters of the APC presidential candidate, who appear to be ignoring the candidate’s evident health issues, are actually betting on the candidate’s ultimate incapacitation in order for Shettima to succeed him as required by the constitution. Can she muster the courage to name names?
Her words during the interview reads: “They just want to push him for them to be the president. It’s not even in his interest,” Ms Mohammed asserted. “Some people from Maiduguri called me today (Monday) asking, ‘Hajia, why did you do this? You have now punctured our interest. Our son is going to be president, and you’re talking like that? After all, look at Tinubu; he cannot do it. We’re all for Kashim. You have not done well for us.”

The daughter of the late Chief Awolowo, who is the Chairman of Nigerian Tribune Newspapers, is credited with starting the long-running conversation that led to this one. She later refutes the claims. Now they have found Naja’atu Mohammed, a willing piper to blow their trumpet. However, Ms. Naja’atu Mohammed neglected to tie up any loose ends in her untrue narratives regarding the APC and its candidates. She is aware of her immigrant heritage and doesn’t worry about Nigeria’s future, whether it is good or bad, because traders usually move positions when storms are approaching.

Naja’atu never came out to tell Nigerians that Tinubu’s health is in an embarrassing state and grossly unfit for public office until she got the contract signed and sealed with PDP. In her words: “I sat with him for two hours in London; when you talk of green, he will give you an answer of red. He can’t even decipher. He has very serious dementia; I believe he has Alzheimer’s because he cannot even hold a cup of tea,” if that is what she claimed, why did she decide to keep this away from the press on returning to Nigeria as a true democrat who believes in the duty of a citizen? Unless she is also trying to confirm that her loyalty is not to Nigeria, the country where she found life.
The strategy Naja’atu Mohammed is doing is the same as drowning politicians who were passed over for a position on a better squad. She has gone on to give more explanations for her confusion. The wife of Bala Mohammed, a political adviser to late governor of Kano state, Alhaji Abubakar Rimi, is alleged to have lost her senses since her husband was killed by a mob in Kano. This is allegedly because the Nigerian system failed to assist her through psychiatrists, which left a burden for leaders like Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Kashim Shettima to handle.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s candidacy is tough to support, she claimed, because she is trying so hard to satisfy her new boss, who is unable to keep his house in order. In an interview with Arise TV, Naja’atu Mohammed said that the renowned terrorist Kabiru Sokoto, who was responsible for the bombs against Catholics in Abuja, was detained by the DSS at Kashim Shettima’s “home” on orders from former president Goodluck Jonathan. However, the DSS personnel and the former President, Jonathan are still around. Numerous newspapers that covered the incident are still in business.Was it in a government lodge? Or Kashim Shettima’s “House”? Additionally, it was established that the terrorist’s true objective was to kidnap the governor’s children. Therefore, Naja’atu Mohammed may have been the one who became “Red” when the word “Green” was said.
During the interview she alleged that Terrorism thrived during the era of Kashim Shettima as Governor. And that despite all the advice from other governors on how to solve the problem, Shettima didn’t heed to any of the advice. But here is the question? Where was Naja’atu Mohammed when all this was happening? Can she bring a Newspaper report or interview she granted at the time Borno people are battling with the conflict?

“You cannot take someone who is practically senile and another person who has been linked to funding terrorism numerous times,” she remarked.”Kashim Shettima is that person. We must not forget that Shettima’s home in Borno was the location of the discovery and capture of Kabiru Sokoto, one of the most wanted terrorists. Do not overlook the fact that terrorism is a multi-billion dollar industry and does not just happen by accident.”
Naja’atu Mohammed once more informed Arise TV that Kabiru Sokoto was detained in Borno as a result of the interview. Additionally, she claims that Kashim Shettima and Governor Zulum visited DCP Abba Kyari, despite the fact that it was a twist in her head that led to such irrational reasoning. – Following her rejection from the party- APC, Naja’atu’s subsequent comments and declarations about Tinubu and Shettima have revealed even more of her faulty reasoning. Additionally, it reveals that she has been suffering from dementia ever since her husband was killed by a mob in Kano. The fact that Ms. Naja’atu Mohammed has dementia makes it clear that she needs assistance.

The Arise TV Interview: Datti Ahmed’s Poor Political Conduct and the Lasting Influence of VP Shettima in Nigeria’s Contemporary Political Landscape

The Arise TV Interview: Datti Ahmed’s Poor Political Conduct and the Lasting Influence of VP Shettima in Nigeria’s Contemporary Political Landscape
By: Dr. James Bwala
The recent Arise TV interview featuring Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed offers a revealing insight into the emotional and psychological underpinnings of his persistent criticisms against Vice President Kashim Shettima. Ahmed’s palpable frustration, stemming from a profound sense of political defeat, underscores much of his rhetoric. This emotional response can be interpreted as more than mere personal grievance; it reflects the broader dynamics of political rivalry and the ways in which loss can provoke vehement opposition. The interview serves as a case study in how individuals navigate political setbacks by redirecting their energies toward vocal dissent.
Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed’s political trajectory following his defeat in the 2023 vice-presidential election vividly illustrates the tension between personal ambition and collective opposition within Nigerian politics. As a prominent figure of the Labour Party, Baba Ahmed’s response to his loss was marked by evident frustration rooted in his perception of systemic challenges facing Nigeria’s opposition coalition. Indeed, Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed embodies an “angry politician” who cannot conceal the pains of electoral defeat because it symbolizes not just personal loss but also a failure to galvanize effective opposition. His critiques offer insightful reflections on Nigeria’s complex political landscape, where ambitions clash with collective action imperatives. Thus, Baba Ahmed’s post-defeat rhetoric serves as both a lamentation and a rallying cry for transformative political engagement. Therefore, I will be kind to him.
Ahmed’s attacks on Shettima are emblematic of the complex interplay between personal ambition and public discourse within Nigerian politics. His frustration reveals an attempt to reclaim relevance and influence by challenging established figures, thereby highlighting the often contentious nature of political engagement. This scenario illustrates how defeat not only shapes individual behavior but also impacts wider political narratives, contributing to an environment where criticism is frequently fueled by underlying emotions rather than solely policy disagreements.

Ahmed’s approach can be seen as a strategic maneuver to galvanize support among those who feel similarly disenfranchised, thereby forging a collective identity rooted in shared discontent. By doing so, he taps into a reservoir of communal frustration, transforming personal loss into a rallying cry for broader political resistance.
The interview on Arise TV not only exposes Ahmed’s inability to manage political defeat gracefully but also underscores the lingering psychological impact Shettima has on him. Baba Ahmed’s remarks reveal a politician struggling with the aftermath of the 2023 presidential elections, unable to reconcile with his loss. This behavior highlights a weakness in political maturity and resilience, qualities essential for effective leadership. Instead of focusing on constructive political engagement post-defeat, Baba Ahmed’s public outburst suggests an ongoing fixation that detracts from his credibility.
The tactics Baba Ahmed is trying to apply on the road to 2027 not only amplify his voice but also position him as a prominent figure within an opposition movement, eager to challenge the status quo. Through these actions, Ahmed effectively channels his personal grievances into a broader political strategy, seeking to redefine the narrative around leadership and accountability in contemporary Nigerian politics. His rhetoric, therefore, serves as both a personal catharsis and a calculated attempt to reshape the political landscape by questioning the legitimacy and effectiveness of those in power. In doing so, Ahmed not only underscores the emotional dimensions of political rivalry but also invites a critical examination of the mechanisms through which power is contested and maintained.
This dynamic underscores the complexity of political discourse, where personal vendettas often intertwine with genuine calls for reform, blurring the lines between personal animosity and legitimate critique. As such, the intensity of Ahmed’s rhetoric can be seen as a reflection of the broader societal tensions that permeate the political arena. In this context, Ahmed’s vehement critiques of Vice President Kashim Shettima can be perceived as both an expression of his own political ambitions and a mirror to the frustrations felt since the 2023 defeat. The fervor with which Ahmed addresses these issues suggests a deep-seated desire to channel public disillusionment into actionable political change, amplifying the voices of those who feel marginalized by the current administration.
However, what Yusuf Baba Ahmed did not know is that his taking his legs to go and grant further illustrates that Vice President Shettima’s personality continues to “haunt” and affect Baba Ahmed deeply, suggesting a complex dynamic extending beyond mere electoral rivalry. Such personal animosities can undermine democratic discourse by shifting attention from policy issues to personal grievances. In sum, this episode reflects poorly on Datti Baba Ahmed’s political conduct while inadvertently affirming the lasting influence of VP Shettima in Nigeria’s contemporary political landscape.

Kashim Shettima: Hate him, like him, the vice president is a child of necessity holding the pillars of APC together for greater glory in 2027.

Kashim Shettima: Hate him, like him, the vice president is a child of necessity holding the pillars of APC together for greater glory in 2027.

Kashim Shettima, Nigeria’s Vice President, embodies a paradoxical figure within the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the 2027 elections approach. His tenure has been met with contrasting sentiments: while some vehemently oppose him, others staunchly support his leadership. The complexities surrounding his political standing arise from internal party divisions and regional dynamics that significantly influence APC’s cohesion. Notably, certain elements pushing for Shettima’s replacement underscore some of the challenges Shettima faces as a true pillar standing with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

As advocates for Shettima, we shall continue to emphasize his indispensable role in maintaining party unity and stability. His governance during Borno State’s insurgency crisis and subsequent contributions to national peace and economic empowerment have garnered significant regional backing. This support is crucial as the APC grapples with factionalism that threatens its electoral prospects.
Ultimately, Shettima represents a “child of necessity” holding together fragile pillars within the APC. Despite controversies and opposition, he remains pivotal for consolidating northern support essential for Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027. The party’s future cohesion may well depend on reconciling divergent interests around this contentious yet unifying figure.
The Vice President has emerged as a significant figure in Nigerian politics, often regarded as a prophetic voice advocating for unity and progress. His leadership style embodies resilience and foresight, qualities that position him as a steadfast figure likely to maintain influence until at least 2031. This perception stems from his consistent emphasis on national cohesion and socio-economic development, which resonates deeply across diverse communities.

Shettima’s strategic engagement with both grassroots movements and political elites underscores his potential to remain a pivotal actor in Nigeria’s political landscape. His advocacy transcends mere rhetoric; it reflects a commitment to transformative policies aimed at fostering sustainable growth. Such attributes reinforce the belief that his voice will continue to shape discourse well into the next decade.
Vice President Kashim Shettima exemplifies a prophetic leadership model grounded in vision and perseverance. His enduring relevance is not merely speculative but anchored in tangible contributions toward national progress. As Nigeria navigates complex challenges ahead, Shettima’s role as a voice of prophecy remains crucial for guiding collective aspirations through 2031.
The controversy surrounding the potential replacement of Vice President Kashim Shettima in the 2027 presidential race has been a focal point of political discourse within Nigeria’s ruling party, the APC. Notably, those advocating for Shettima’s substitution are often identified as opponents of President Tinubu, suggesting that attempts to displace the vice president are politically motivated rather than grounded in governance concerns. This dynamic underscores how internal party disputes frequently manifest as broader conflicts involving key political figures.

Despite mounting speculation and unrest within APC ranks—highlighted by violent reactions at a North-East stakeholders’ meeting—the party leadership has consistently reaffirmed its commitment to the Tinubu-Shettima ticket. Senior officials have denounced rumors of friction or plans to replace Shettima as baseless and detrimental to party unity. These statements emphasize that such rumors often arise from misunderstandings or deliberate attempts to destabilize the administration’s cohesion.
It is, therefore, evident that resistance against President Tinubu correlates with efforts to undermine Vice President Shettima’s position. The official discourse from APC leadership portrays these efforts as distractions fueled by political adversaries rather than genuine policy disagreements. Maintaining unity around the current ticket appears crucial for preserving stability within both the party and Nigeria’s broader political landscape.

It is high time, therefore, for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to recognize the intricate dynamics within his party and government, particularly the emerging coalition of oppositions that could challenge his leadership ahead of the 2027 elections. Despite the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) endorsing Tinubu for a second term, underlying tensions and factionalism within the party merit serious attention. The president’s reforms have elicited mixed reactions, with criticisms regarding economic challenges and insecurity fueling dissent among some APC members.

Today, opposition parties such as the African Democratic Congress (ADC) have actively accused Tinubu’s administration of efforts to destabilize their unity while simultaneously consolidating themselves into a formidable coalition aimed at political transformation. This evolving political landscape necessitates that President Tinubu reaffirm his grip on power by addressing internal fractures decisively. Failure to do so may embolden these coalitions and undermine his prospects in 2027.
As coalition dynamics evolve within the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the role of Vice President Kashim Shettima remains central to the All Progressives Congress’s (APC) prospects for success in the 2027 elections. Despite internal contestations and factional disputes, Shettima’s political influence, particularly in Northern Nigeria, positions him as a pivotal figure whose endorsement could consolidate regional support crucial for APC’s electoral strategy. The Northeast bloc’s endorsement of Shettima alongside President Tinubu underscores his significance despite dissent from some party officials.
Official statements from the presidency have sought to quell rumors about Shettima’s potential exclusion from the 2027 ticket, emphasizing that final decisions will be made post-APC convention and dismissing narratives of discord between Tinubu and Shettima. This institutional backing reinforces Shettima’s status as a key player within APC. In sum, while ADC coalitions are still establishing their footing ahead of 2027, VP Kashim Shettima’s political capital remains a cornerstone for APC’s electoral viability.

2027: Coalition only way to send APC packing from Gombe, Nigeria- Group

2027: Coalition only way to send APC packing from Gombe, Nigeria- Group
Alliance for Good Governance, a political group comprising 108 other groups within the state has declared support for opposition parties’ move to unseat the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led government in the state and country.
Hon. Ahmed Usman Haruna, convener of the meeting and Co-ordinator of the Group while speaking during their meeting in Gombe on Tuesday said it had become imperative for political stakeholders to unite for victory in 2027.
Haruna said that the only way to defeat APC in 2027 in the state and country was to unite beyond political differences using a coalition that provide a platform for all well-meaning Nigerians to contribute their efforts towards sending APC out of government.
He said that the APC-led government had failed on its promise to deliver a better Nigeria as majority of citizens had been impoverished by their harsh economic policies and programmes.
The coordinator added that since the coalition was working towards bringing good governance to Nigeria, “we are fully in support of the coalition and we have over 108 groups here and we are going to mobilise more to end the pain-inflicting rule of APC in Gombe State and Nigeria.
“We are here to declare our support for the way out that we are seeing on ground through the movement for the coalition in Nigeria. Of course coalition is the way out.
“If APC is in government, then the only thing that we need is an alternative political party that will get them out from office”, he said.
Haruna urged stakeholders to create more awareness in their communities towards boosting political awareness and participation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
