Tinubu in closed-door meeting with Supreme Council for Shari’a

President Bola Tinubu is in a closed meeting with members of the Supreme Council for Sharia in Nigeria (SCSN) at the Council Chamber, Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The meeting is coming in about 48 hours after the President of SCSN, Sheikh AbdurRasheed Hadiyyatullah, expressed regrets for supporting the Tinubu-Shettima same-faith ticket last year.

It could be recalled that on Tuesday, Sheikh Hadiyyatullah, in an interview with journalists in Abuja, provoked a fresh controversy on the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 election, which he said, has fallen short of expectations.
