The All Progressives Congress (APC) vice presidential candidate, Sen Kashim Shettima, has explained why he wore an oversize suit and sneakers to the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) conference in Lagos.
Shettima, who represented the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, caused a stir when he appeared at the conference in an oversize black suit, a red tie and black sneakers.
Nigerians took to social media to express divergent views about his appearance at the conference. While some are condemning him, others were hailing the former Borno State Governor.
Nigerians also replicated the APC vice presidential candidate’s outifit on microblogging site, Twitter, and called it #ShettimaChallenge.
Explaining why he dressed in the outfit to the NBA conference, Shettima, in a viral video said: “One of the presidential candidates pondered with his agents. They held meetings for three consecutive nights to commence mischief. I deliberately wore sneakers to sub at them.”
