Professor Itse Sagay SAN, Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC), on Wednesday said he does not know what record Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello is going to base his presidential ambition on if truly he is serious about contesting in the 2023 general elections.

The governor, in a recent interview, had said he is considering running for President in 2023 on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as all Nigerians are asking him to run.

“Nigerians, the youth and women, and all Nigerians, including very objective elites are asking me to run for President in 2023. And I believe it is high time that we look into capacity, who can do the job, who is going to unify this country. And I think they are seeing something in me that they are asking me to come and unite and fix this country.”

However, speaking in an interview with DAILY INDEPENDENT, Sagay said Yahaya Bello needs to understand that by the zoning arrangement in the ruling party, it will be the turn of the South to produce the APC presidential candidate in 2023.

He said: “If he (Yahaya Bello) wants to run, he knows what to do. But he should know that this time around in 2023, it is the turn of the South. The North is already completing its two terms in the current dispensation and it will rotate to the South.

“But if he wants to go against that understanding and run, let him do so and let’s see how much support he is going to get.”

On the governor’s claim that Nigeria needs a youthful president in 2023, Sagay said being a youth is not an automatic qualification for becoming president.

“If he says Nigerians need youth as president, we have to select the youth we want, not anybody who can just jump in because he is a youth. Being a youth is not an automatic qualification for the presidency.

“So, he can do what he wants to do but nobody is committed to his line of thinking at all. I don’t know what record he is going to base his presidential ambition on.”

Damnnn niggarrrr
He should run for the presidential seat

You dont need a record to win an election in the land of Dumbos (Africa)... You just need to be in the right party.

.....

Yahya Bello is deceiving himself. A stupid governor that could not implement the new minimum wage for the civil servant, all he does is to waste money on Destiny Etiko yanch

Is unfortunate he didn't represent the Youth well

Yahaya ko gbeborun ni! We don’t want Nigeria agian, una wan force Bello that doesn’t fit to be called LG chairman to become a President. Unfortunately palliatives and cash would be released to the poor masses jst to buy their votes, in case Nigeria still exist in 2023, never sell your vote!

At least he can start with not being as senseless as buhari, even though he himself is senseless.

F

How can you say he has no record of project to campaign with??
Do you thinks it's easy to invite, seniorman kelechi iheanacho, and Mikel just to snap pictures with them

For someone who couldn’t govern a small state like Kogi;

For someone who owed civil servants months and years of their salaries wants to govern over a diverse and populous nation like Nigeria, Yahaya Bello is a joke, he is merely going to waste his funds on elections and even in his state he is not going to win and that’s a well known fact.

I'll chose a goat over yahya bello. I'll chose a non leaving thing over anyone that uphold islam.

Case closed

Now, the heading cracks me up! That's all!!

You are on point bro...

Lool. Yahaya Bello who shut down his transport company called Fairplus the moment he was dashed kogi gubernatorial seat, laying off all his staff at agege-isokoko, okene and lokoja terminals just because he had found an effortless means of making money? Is that not an chievement? I think that should be enough achievement to elect him

He cant win his state not to talk of region.

Smh

How Well Has He Govern?Nigeria No Be Kogi State

Sagay can't believe how dat fellow apc members have the same ambitions as his oga tinubu.

Sagay..Tinubu henchman. The way this old man has been criticizing all APC politicians, ucan definitely conclude he is doing the bidding of one okpolo eyes billion van criminal.

I wonder why this guy had to be a sell-out. I think he understands now that supporting bubu was a mistake from the "go"; he's been pasing cryptic massages since; anyhow, bubu says the APC won't be zoning but will pick a credible candidate, whereas he's "boy", Segay, says otherwise...Baba sef don tire for the Jubril wen de run the "zoo".

He will just waste his time, energy and resources.

I'm a kogites but yahaya bello being a president of Nigeria is a pure disaster
