The Shettima challenge, which is currently trending on all social media platforms, has drawn the attention of singer-songwriter Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy, a typical example of how dramatic Nigerians can be.

The APC vice-presidential candidate Kashim Shettima wore a unique outfit to the opening ceremony of the annual general conference of the Nigerian Bar Association, leaving the veteran singer Charly Boy with no option than to join others in replicating that look.

The outfit the All Progressive Congress vice presidential candidate Kashim Shettima appeared on during the opening ceremony of the Nigerian Bar Association’s annual general conference served as the catalyst for the challenge.

Shettima arrived to the conference on Monday in Lagos dressed in a dark suit, a red tie, and unknown designer sneakers, looking all classy.

But hey!! He managed to give plenty of his critics sometime to talk about during the event, which was also attended by Atiku Abubakar of PDP and Labour Party candidate – Peter Obi.

Shettima critics claimed that the politician lacked style after seeing the viral photo of him sitting with his suit buttoned and tie protruding. They considered the politician to be looking very hilarious.

The activist, however, joined the Shettima Challenge on Tuesday and shared a picture of himself on Instagram wearing a related outfit.

When Charly Boy captioned the photo, he said:

“Nothing my pikins no go make me do. I was ordered by one of my Area children to do the Shettima Challenge. Wahala for person wey no get tye Even though my shoe no show, but I try naah. Wetin u think?”

Meanwhile, in an effort to support his party member, former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode has downplayed the controversy surrounding Shettima’s attire.

According to Fani-Kayode in a tweet, Nigerians ought to be more worried about Shettima’s statesmanship and calmness at the conference,

“Congrats to my friend and brother His Excellency Senator Kashim Shettima, Nigeria’s incoming Vice President, for a superlative performance at the NBA conference yesterday! You did us proud!” the ex-minister wrote.
