Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has called on his party, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to immediately zone its presidential ticket for the 2023 general elections to the North East region.

Kalu, a former governor of Abia, made the call while congratulating the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for electing a presidential candidate from the North East, a zone he has always clamoured for to produce the next President outside the South East.

The Senator who has never hidden his preference for Senate President Ahmad Lawan as President Muhammadu Buhari's worthy successor, called on the president to support and pick Lawan as his successor.

Kalu said with the emergence of a Northeasterner (Atiku Abubakar) as PDP flag bearer, it was no longer feasible for the APC to field a Southern candidate in the 2023 presidential election except the ruling party wants to go on political retirement.

Taking to his Facebook page, Kalu wrote:
“Congratulations to the PDP for electing a North Easterner. Nigerians must have seen what I saw yesterday. For our party the APC, it is no longer feasible to talk about Southern candidates except the APC want to go on political retirement.

I urge the National Chairman of the party and the entire NWC to stamp their feet and zone APC presidential ticket to the North East.

President Muhammad Buhari has a right to choose his successor and I call on him to pick Senator Ahmad Lawan as his successor. In every democratic setting, presidents and Governors support and pick their successors. I call on President Buhari to pick a successor from the North East and that will be the equity the South East needs. With the North East, the cycle will be closest to completion of regions producing the president of Nigeria.

By now, all APC aspirants should drop their ambition and support a North Easterner. Senator Ahmad Lawan is the destination.

Congratulations to the North East as we look forward to a president of Nigeria from the North East.”

Kalu right or wrong?

I wonder how these mofos sleep at night..l can't understand why a group of about 1000 people called politicians can hold about a population of about 216 million people to ransom..

So this feathered brain scumbag wants us APC to zone it to NE and he thinks lawan the clown can defeat Atiku? It's no longer what's best for the nation but what's best for their pockets and their parties..

Stupid douchebags..

THE TRUTH IS ALWAYS INCONVENIENT

Abacha's son won Kano PDP Guber Primaries.

Lamido's son won Jigawa PDP Guber Ticket.

Elrufai's son won APC Kaduna North Federal Constituency.

Ajimobi's son won APC Ticket to contest Oyo Assembly Seat.

Ibori's daughter won PDP Ethiope Federal Constituency of Delta State.

Ganduje's son won APC primary election for House of Representatives Dawakin Tofa, Rimin Gado and Tofa.

Okowa's daughter won PDP House of Assembly Primaries.

Akala's son won APC primaries for Ogbomoso Federal Constituency.

Fayose's son won PDP Ekiti Central Federal Constituency .

Yerima’s son also won ...

The circle continues.
And if it continue like this, the sons and daughters of nobody can never be somebody.

Simply put, the future of Nigeria belongs to the children of the rich elites.

When you don serve papa finish, you go still serve the Children. what a country how can there be any change if it continues like this?

BleedingPen:
Kalu right or wrong?

kalu is foolish..he's just saying all these because of personal and selfish interest. A north easterner means 16 years of northern Muslim leadership.
Very impossible

Smiles...

Exactly what I want then watch the Northern vote divided among themselves.

The Southern just needs to clinch this opportunity and present Peter Obi as he stands as the most popular and decisive Southern candidate for now.
