Afegbua hits Atiku: Don’t be a perpetual presidential aspirant — you’ve reached retirement age | TheCable

He said the Peoples Democratic Party must zone its 2023 presidential candidacy to the south, and as such, Atiku should “ditch his quest”.

In a statement on Sunday, Afegbua said Atiku should not make himself a “perpetual candidate” for the presidency.Atiku has unsuccessfully contested the presidency five times in the last three decades.He said the presidency belongs to the south, adding that the idea of an Atiku candidacy is akin to “promoting an expired product”.

“He cannot assume the role of a perpetual candidate or professional aspirant year in, year out, of the party as though the party was established for him alone. It defeats all sense of logic for such an old man to attempt another round of political contestation at a time the general feeling and mood in the country supports a younger Nigerian from the southern extraction of the country.
