The Presidency has denied media reports that President Muhammadu Buhari directed the zoning of the presidential ticket of the ruling All Progressives Congress to the South.

Several reports emerged on Saturday night that the President had supported the rotation of power to the South in the 2023 general elections.

It was learned that Buhari stated this while speaking in at a dinner with All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirants at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

However, in a chat with BBC on Sunday, Presidential Spokesman, Garba Shehu described the reports that Buhari had asked party leaders to choose a Southern aspirant as the party’s consensus candidate as false.

The presidential spokesman also refuted reports that the Nigerian leader said he would only back a southern candidate as his successor.

Shehu said the president only asked all the aspirants to seek a consensus amongst themselves ahead of the party’s presidential primary election slated for June 6th to 9th.

He added that Buhari said he would back anyone chosen during consensus talks, notwithstanding the aspirant’s region.

He said: “This issue has not arisen. All he has to do is negotiate and get one person out of it, and he has shown that as a leader he is ready to provide leadership to make that happen.”

Naija News reports that Bola Tinubu, Rotimi Amaechi, Yemi Osinbajo, Kayode Fayemi, and Emeka Nwaiuba, amongst others, are southern politicians seeking the ticket, while Senate President Ahmad Lawan and Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State are the aspirants from the North.

Na wao...

This one just the play ten ten with southern aspirants

ALL THESE INTERPRETATIONS EXPLANATIONS AND MISINTERPRETATIONS ARE DUE TO THE PRESIDENT INTERJECTING AND INSERTING HIMSELF INTO DEMOCRATIC NORMS AND PROCESS, WITH A MIEN OF ANTI DEMOCRACY MOVES AND EXRCISES.

If only they would allow the democratic process to take the normal course with, the flawless flow through its natural regular course.

The interjection of the president in the course of democratic engineering is the singular motive for OVERHEATING the polity.

I hope Tinubu urchins are paying attention. No to another 8 years of looting and waste of resources. No to 8 years of tribalism.

Tinubu said he didn’t believe in one Nigeria , why does he want to rule a country he doesn’t believe in?

Sebi Garba sheu don resign now?
which one is presidency spokeman again?
.
i no come understand again o, you want me to believe this irrelevant nicompoo man? Bunch of infested ding bat.

Heart attack to diapers crew.

That's obvious. His choice number one is fulani. His choice number two is fulani. Number three - Fulani. That is obvious to everyone except the Afonja.

You really think the fulani consolidation of taking over all important security and financial apparatuses in the country only to hand it over to one druggie or his minions. When people from a section of the country defended that was when I realized there's more hope for a foool than some.

Ah!!

You dey feel am?

This Tinubu guys need to calm down with fake news fa.

Buhari should go and fvcking rest

Yorubas and fulanis are one. No shaking! Fulanis are free to attack any part of Yoruba land.

We blame IPOB and Nmadi kanu for this. Nmadi kanu and the igbos are the cause of our problem and he must riot in jail.

Our god Tinubu shouldn't condemn this act because it'll ruin his criminal ambition.

When will Afonjas have sense? Yorubas are the stupidest and weakest tribe I have ever seen

A Messiah you later became an oppressor.

One of the biggest problem we have in this country are the Igbos and Yoruba people

The two are waste of space, people and land politically. The two tribes are very useless to the entire south.

How can you two that suppose to work together be ass licking the north just to spite one another, thats the height of foolishness

The beef between Yoruba and Igbo does not make sense it has to stop.

Who hasn't been looking amongst those vying for the post right now? It's just so sad the same set of people have been ruling us despite knowing we need a very drastic change . How do we go about the change though? How many legit business owners/professionals can afford to buy ordinary House of Assembly form not to talk of Presidency? The system is just so corrupt that there's almost no chance for a non-looter to vie not to talk of emerging winner.

Ah ah ah ah!
What's wrong na?
You want to kill the opkolo eye for us?
Abego

..... when TINUBU said the other day in Abeokuta that the Presidency is OURS you were thinking he didn't know what he was saying. Thus, he sees,saw and knows the Game the Fulani man is playing with Nigerians. The North have intentions to hold power after 8years in office but this man called Jagaban or TINUBU is headaches for them.

Garba is part of the inner fulani cabals that has been ayed by buhari silence. They are those ones forcing Northern candidates on buhari.

The major thing here is that Buhari refused to anoint anyone. That opens a free and fair contest for everyone. Tinubu will beat them handsomely that's the truth.

And again the endorsement of the northern governors to rotate power to the south has narrowed the contest already. Amaechi, Osinbajo and Tinubu are the front runners here. Let the most popular win it in the field.

Buhari has refused to anoint anyone yet.
But all those northern govs are waiting for his signal to decide who to follow.
The endorsement of the northern govs is not worth the paper it's written on obviously. If you're banking on that you don enter one chance be dat.
Once buhari speaks, the endorsement is in the mud

Mind you, I don't hate Tinubu. If he wins, I'll congratulate him. What is obvious though is that the present power brokers in APC are not favourably disposed to his candidacy which is why there's so much rigmarole going on.
He is also banking on buying everyone to his side.
So it's to see who it what carries the day.
