Oluomo faulted some of the critics of the Muslim-Muslim ticket who went ahead to support Atiku Abubakar and dumped Peter Obi, the Labour Party's presidential candidate in the election.
Prominent among them is Yakubu Dogara, the former speaker of the House of Representatives, who dumped the APC because of the Muslim-Muslim ticket and supported Atiku.

The cleric said those critics preferred President Muhammadu Buhari, a Fulani Muslim and northerner, to hand over to another Fulani Muslim and northerner.
He then urged the people not to allow the APC's Muslim-Muslim ticket to blind them from bigger issues because the same faith ticket is mere "a symptom".
Oluoma said:
“APC didn't adopt a Muslim-Muslim ticket to Islamize Nigeria; let no one deceive you into thinking that. They did it to get votes. If you are a Christian and you think your problem is a Muslim, or vice versa, you don't have insight, you have sight".
