It has become evident that judging from the relentless pressure being mounted on former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan by power brokers in the North, GEJ and, of course, the South-South geopolitical zone have assumed the best lens through which the issue of power shift is best viewed as we gradually move closer to the 2023 general elections.
At the end of the day, Obasanjo, who contested the election on the platform of the PDP, emerged victorious in the election and served out his two terms of eight years in office. In its effort to maintain a political balance among the various geopolitical zones in the country, the PDP decided to introduce what is known today as the zoning formula which — although was not in the nation’s rule book: the Constitution — was generally accepted as one of the ways to entrench peace in the country.
Expectedly, in 2015, it was expected that President Jonathan should be allowed to complete his second tenure of four years, but it dramatically turned out that power, quickly once again, returned to the North when Major General Muhammadu Buhari won the presidential election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress.
Apart from the 17 southern governors, who at their meeting some time ago resolved that power should rotate to the region, political elites, youth groups, civil society organisations and individual political heavyweights from the North have drummed their support that power should this time around rotate to the South.
He should join d race & blame 16 years of PDP for insecurity, he would b in good company, ex members of his gang r there. They can restrategise on how to looter continua without d deaths. Hopefully
Indeed.
STATELESS Daddy told me when 2 brothers fight foreigners inherite their land ALIENS,PURE ALIENS making an indigèneous son of the land stateless it's unacceptable. Let me warn,by the time all said & done,every single ALIEN will leave our ancestral land😡
Somebody should advice uncle Jona not to contest. It's better to leave when the ovation is loudest. 2023 should be Peter Obi, Maghalu, Femi Adeshina, Sowore, Seyi Makinde etc..
I hate discussing this issue because where one comes from does not guarantee good governance, but For justice, fairness and equity, 2023 election should be the time for SOUTH EAST to produce the Nigerian president.
Dem one trick Northerners..,it will be the end of there grip on Nigeria politics and I’ll like it though.
Una mumu never do, they should allow this corrupt and ogogoro man to drink his sapele water, no development under his government for niger delta or south east people.
