After a two-term, eight-year tenure, the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari retd.), will expire at noon, May 29, 2023.

That is what the constitution prescribes. As to be expected, succession battles and presidential manoeuvrings, which come alive only at election time, have begun within the ruling All Progressives Congress, the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party and the numerous fringe political parties. As it is typical of presidential politics in Nigeria, much of the early noises are about the section of the country that is entitled to produce President Buhari’s successor.

Ordinarily, it would not be out of place to assume that in the event that the presidency goes to the South, for the sake of equity, fairness and justice, the South-East geopolitical zone should claim the big prize. The compelling argument is that in the 4th Republic, both the South-West and South-South zones had their shots at the presidency.

Ahmed Bola Tinubu is an intriguing character, given his larger-than-life image in the APC. While his antecedents in Lagos are well known, he appears to lack the temperament of a no-nonsense politician ready to whip Nigerians back into line. Besides, while his style of governance, especially his tendency to emasculate both the executive and legislative branches of government, might have worked for him in Lagos State, such a strategy could come unstuck at the federal level.
