A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has outlined the only condition the North must fulfill to be guaranteed the 2023 presidency.
The former minister made this known in response to a statement by the leader of the Northern Elders’ Forum (NEF), Prof. Ango Abdullahi who said there was nothing wrong in the North producing President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor in 2023.
Prof. Abdullahi, who is a former Vice-Chancellor of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, also stated that there was nothing wrong with the appointment of more Service Chiefs from the region.
In his reaction, Fani-Kayode declared that the North can keep the presidency as long as it allows other regions of the country disintegrate.
The former minister who took to his Twitter page wrote, “There is nothing wrong if the Presidency remains in the north in 2023” -Ango Abdullahi, you can keep your accursed and damned Presidency: just let us go!
“We want to be rid of you. We want to be free of you. We want to leave you. We want to cut off from you. Just let us go!”
