https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEslXVfeFrI 2023: Northern Elders Take On Southern Governors, Reject Power Shift Say North will continue to lead Nigeria | Stop self-help in VAT war to avoid anarchy, ACF warns No region can solve own problems alone – Lawan Ahead of the 2023 general election, some elders in the North have said the region will not give up the presidency to the South, insisting that the region will continue to rule Nigeria. This seems to be a response to the demand by the Southern Governors’ Forum that presidential power must return to the South at the expiry of the eight-year two-term tenure of President Muhamamdu Buhari in 2023, in the spirit of power rotation, equity and fair play. LEADERSHIP reports that since the return of civil rule in 1999, power has traditional moved between the South and North. Chief Olusegun Obasanjo (South) handed over to the late Umaru Musa Yar’Adua (North), who died in office. Dr Good luck Jonathan (South), who was Yar’Adua’s deputy, took the seat until he yielded it to Muhammadu Buhari (North) after the 2015 general election. On Thursday, the Southern governors had risen from their meeting in Enugu to repeat their call for the president to revert to the South in 2023, just as they threw their weight behind the collection of VAT by state governments, among other resolutions. However, the spokesperson of one of the groups in the region, the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, yesterday said the North was not for sale and that Northerners are not second-class citizens of Nigeria, as such the region will not accept to play second fiddle when the region has the population to vie for the top political position and win. Dr. Baba-Ahmed stated this at the weekend at the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria while delivering the keynote address at the inaugural edition of Maitama Sule Leadership Lecture Series organised by the students wing of the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG). While urging the students to be proud of who they are as Northerners, he also challenged them not to accept being treated as second-class citizens in their own country. Speaking about the 2023 general elections and the agitations for power shift to the South, Baba-Ahmed said the heavens will not fall if a northerner is again elected the next president of Nigeria. He stated further that the North was not for sale and that Northerners will surprise those waiting for them to queue up in 2023 and be given money in exchange for their votes, adding that anyone who does not want a northerner as president should leave the country if one emerges. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CUCq_IUoRzB/?utm_medium=copy_link https://leadership.ng/2023-northern-elders-take-on-southern-governors-reject-power-shift/amp/ 3 Likes 2 Shares

Reject it if you like. You people have no choice. You are only scared because of the score card of the best president so far you have at the center, if Buhari has performed so well and if you people don't have what you are hiding you won't be fighting for power badly since it will not be the first time a Southern will rule this country. You know you won't dare the south cos if you do you will have to go borrow more money to run the country because by then every pipeline in the south will be in flames. 133 Likes 4 Shares |

I am 100% with them, South are all united against our region so there is no one that can convince us to vote for them. We are for anybody that comes from the North, we must protect our interest, we must not vote for the people that dislike us, it is not an offense to love yourselves 4 Likes 2 Shares |

These people don't understand that it's not about holding unto power? Until they are ready to develop up there, that's when they will develop, else they will keep going backward. You can't be dictating for a country of 200 million people, if you want that, then let's each region go separate ways. 23 Likes 1 Share |
