Reports emerged on Monday, December 1, 2014 that the Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola has been ruled out as a possible vice presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The reason being that the likely presidential candidate will be of the Muslim faith, hence a Christian candidate will be preferable to avoid fielding a Muslim-Muslim ticket.
