A former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, has warned the All Progressives Congress against picking a Muslim as running mate of Tinubu, who is also a Muslim.
Lawal pointed out that Nigerians were still conscious of ethno-religious factors in politics.
According to him, Tinubu would have been running mate to the President Muhammadu Buhari when the latter became the candidate of the APC in 2014 but for the discouragement of a Muslim-Muslim ticket.
The ex-SGF, issued the warning while speaking on Politics Today, a current affairs programme on Channels Television, on Thursday.
