Hello Everyone,
With the rejuvenation of PMB's health condition, and his renewed interest in governance, it is strongly clear he could contest re-election in 2019. Of course he stands to win barring any major change, but that's topic for another day.
What's interesting to me now is who gets to succeed PMB in 2023? For obvious reasons (s)he has to come from the southern part of the country. OBJ's 8years and GEJ's 6years are enough to qualify SE to produce the next candidate, but unfortunately the candidate strong and popular enough in APC to achieve that. They couldn't even produce a Senate President because they don't even have a senator.
The most popular APC chieftain is Imo State governor Rochas Okorocha, unfortunately for him as well he hasn't done anything remarkable in Imo state to show the rest of the country. Unless by then may be Nigerians fancy statues of heads of states as dividends of democracy.
As a compromise, the ticket nay be zoned to the SS, after all GEJ only served for 6years. Another point is that the region has been supporting the rest of the country with its petrodollars for decades.
Rotimi Ameachi being an Ekwerre (basically an Igbo man) from Rivers State will fulfill most of these conditions. Noteworthy is his impressive performance as a governor of Rivers State and his national appeal.
His candidature will also give a blow to the cry of marginalization and secession.
In Summary
1. He's from SS
2. He's Igbo
3. He was a performing governor


What do you think about my projection? do you think anybody from the south has better odds against him?
Thank you for reading.
