Former lawmaker representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Senator Shehu Sani on Monday, declared that it would be unfair to deny the Southwest geopolitical zone the presidency in 2023.

Sani, a member of the eighth Senate, said it would amount to ingratitude on the part of the North not to support the Southwest for the presidency.

According to him, the Southwest geopolitical zone helped in uprooting the Peoples Democratic Party in 2015. Speaking with journalists in Kaduna on Monday, the former lawmaker argued that it would be unfair for the north after eight years to hold on power beyond 2023.“It will be a serious threat to the future and peace of the country if the Northern region continues to dominate the leadership of the nation because of her numerical strength.

“The President should caution those from the North eyeing that position. Power needs to rotate to other regions; the Southwest worked tirelessly to remove PDP from office and helped to bring Nigeria to where it is today and deserve support from the North come 2023. “If federal character is applied on appointments and other areas, it should also be applicable in the political space. Therefore, the North should be fair and magnanimous to all and give all regions, a sense of belonging”.

No more zoning my dear, only he who has d highest vote wins

Because the country belongs to the north west and the south.Other regions are foreigners,right?

Why Southwest? Power should go to the Southeast in 2023

I will prefer to have a northern as president than to have a yourba man as president

So it's totally fair to continue denying the South East presidency of this country? ShehuSani !!!!!

I have my doubts that this statement is actually from Shehu Sani. Why don't we let the SE go their way since they're not considered worthy of ruling a country they pay allegiance and taxes to?

ShehuSani did you really say this? So working tirelessly to remove pdp is your criterion for zoning presidecy to swest. And South West worked tirelessly to bring Nigeria to where it is today. You've a personal agenda, I believe.1, to oppose rufai. 2, to seek a position.

Why do you always want to be noticed....shehu! Your political carrier has expired stop claiming to be relevant.

No Sir, its for the south east. Obasanjo -Yoruba Buhari- Housa Igbo man- ? For equity justice and fair play. South east 2023

Indeed activist.

What about South East ?

But the terrorist from Kaduna is making plans and hoping Nigerians will forget who he is and all the killings he sponsors. He's been more vocal on the app of late

And must be a Christian. I non send anybody but that’s the it should be

What is your take about South East

Not even southeast...

We are all crying for power from different regions it doesn't make the stingy n heartless politicians from d different regions saint they r still same greedy politicians to me I don't mind if we r invaded by some aliens from Plato

From all indications,south east is no more part and parcel of Nigeria, no one is talking about how other geo political zones will help south east come up and be the president of Nigeria, you are here talking about south west that produced OBASANJO who ruled for 8years, this isbad

North, south, west or east I don't give a fuvk where the person comes from as long as he got his shit together.we cried from d south we got Jonathan, west baba n north buhari and still nothing infact abject failure

Na wa oo! Over 20 years of return to democracy in Nigeria so ibo people no qualify to be president?

Denying you vice president position will be dangerous.

Talk of a political juggernaut

They are flying their deceptive flag again, For the wise and designing and truthful, it's time for the friendly and logical round table talk of all Nigerian nationalities to decide THE PEACEFUL DEVOLUTION OR AFFIRMATION OR RENEGOTIATED NEW NIGERIAN TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

Tabb

ShehuSani , TaLoBenSe ? Is it possible to hold ur thoughts to yourself? We can speak for ourselves pls, dis sudden self appointment as Oodua Rep, is self serving

Why not SouthEast?

Election was held just few months ago. Somebody is already talking about 2023

It is too.early to talk about 2023.president.for now

Southwest wey Don mumu

President is not about give you work for it let's Igbo's now they work for it if APC Will give Igbo ticket for 2023 the Igbo's will still go for Fulani Hausa northern under PDP that is Igbo's for you.

I think it is unfair to Nigerians to use zoning to decide a presidential candidate. I'd rather we had meritocracy. Wherever the president may come from....... we should have 6 vice presidents.

What about the Southeast? Is it fair?

Why not SE?

ShehuSani This is how we got the least deserving person in Nigeria as president and now there's a mass exodus to Canada. If Canada had leaders like you and MBuhari,do you think she'd be an option for emigration? No expectations,no qualities to be had,just a region of birth.

The first time that this Afro loser said something meaningful. Bt na u ask em?

Do these dolts ever think of how to make Nigeria into a country to be respected. It's just power this, presidency that. Bloody bastards.

The man have smoke kwaya again. Shehu Sani stop smoking, it’s not good for your brain.

Rather, it will be unfair to deny southeast the presidency cause both southwest and south south have taken a turn

It'll be Fiat to deny East Presidency in 2023 — Daek Shadow 🙄🙄🙄

And it will be fair to deny Southeast that opportunity come 2023?

😅

Hhh I will tell el-rufa'i what he said

South East wake up and enter the fray. Plant your heavy weights in both APC and PDP. If not it might fly you. Sani knows why he made that statement. The North and West has an alliance. The sharing formular has started for 2023 and they are not even looking at the East

The Igbos too should wake up and stop this type of politics they play if they desire to rule this country. I pray Dave Umahi moves to APC before the end of his tenure so we can consider him. Only him is fit to rule Nigeria from the South East.

Who is denying them? This man is mumy!

Shehu Sani I beg to differ. The SE need it more for fairness, justice and equity. I know the SW have single handesly carried the ruling party and you are banking on this as to why they should have it. But in all fairness, it shouldn't be so. Let the Igbos rule.

Absolute nonsense.

Sha it's not Tinubu!

Why are you not campaigning for the southeast? After OBj was,Ya ra duwa, GEJ, and now we have buhari. But why you people denying the southeast the chance to sit on the Villa?

Please let's drop dis regional agitation of presidency we need competence not tribe or religion so let the President come from anywhere

Those who're asking about SE should remember that SE in collaboration with others, except SW brought about OBJ's presidency. Till today, correct S'Westerners like us do not reckon with him. We dash you✋🙇‍♂️

Hypocrisy!!!

Igbos are saying it should be South East. No one is stopping the south east from presenting a presidential candidate. But I doubt if the person will get votes even from the east. Igbos don't even like themselves.

It is fair comr!! Because we worn them of hypocrisy at the front.

We would deny ourselves if it must be a 'bullionist'!

ShehuSani what about South East? Abi dem no Follow 4 Nig. Agenda😭😭😡

Wat abt south east

Never mind... Osinbajo 2023-2031 God willing...

Fairness should have a definition. Don't you think it would be grossly unfair to deny Igbo the Presidency come 2023?

And l like this guy Afro why is he talking like this

WandeOwati you can see the game?

What about southeast?

If power is returning to the south, for equity and unity, Southeast is the port

No body is talking about how Nigeria 🇳🇬 will be like China 🇨🇳. Imagine all these nonsense about sw or se. All the same, the SE want re structure or Biafra. Who presidency don help? Iberibe!!

It will not be unfair Sir. For the unity of this country, for justice and equity, it is better to support the lgbo man other wise we may not be able to contain IPOB. If the Igbos are not allowed to rule this Country then they should be allowed to have their own Country.

But is fair to deny the South east of it right?

This is logic too hard for weak minds to grab.Before Sani can say this out,it simply means that the plot to sideline Tinubu or (SW) has leaked out.He doesn't want to come out plain.Only the intelligent ones can understand the lyrics. Tinubu should be wise now before it's too late

I hope I didn't hear that from Shehu Sani. If the rest of Nigeria feels the Igbos are not part of Nigeria, let us have our Biafra jejely. You can keep the rest of Nigeria. Just allow the Igbos go. Crap !

It should be south east. If Nigeria truely wnts to foster equity & unity. If South east ar nt giving presidency, it simply underscores d point they hv been making. D hatred, ethnicity & tribalism WI be so conspicuous. They ar d monority bt they hv wt it takes to mv this country

Loooool.... All this talk of 2023.... We ain't even past 2019 already preparing for 2023?....however if u talking of being fair it should go to the SE... The SW already have the VP position for 8yrs .. It should go to another region if we are talking of fairness😁

ShehuSani I'm sure most southerners agree that their survival does not depend on being the President of this country but equity demands that the rest of Nigeria should give them the sense of belonging. Anything to the contrary justifies their quest for self determination.

So South East is no more part of Nigeria mr Senator. there is God ooo

Yes, Nigeria can only be govern by region that believe in it, not Biafrans cos they refer to 9ja as a zoo.

Hmmm.... Just woke up?

do u think we need a president in this country!! Everybody is fighting for his own survival in this country

Was thinking after he lost election, he regain insanity but it’s obvious he completely lost it. What a shame of a nation

From your party or which party sir

They might deny themselves with their choice of candidate.

For fairness, equity and justice, it is the turn of the south east to produce the president of Nigeria.

South East Presidency 2023 or else...

Bro Sani, on what basis should South West have presidency in 2023? Hope this is not the trickery of divisive political permutations.

ShehuSani, and it will be fair to deny South East presidency in 2023?

Regardless of where the president come from, am less concern, I only want Elrufi statement to be proof wrong.

Because the SE are non Nigerians?!

Playing outside the field.

I will support South East. Igbo man needs to be the next president of the Republic for the sake of one Nigeria.

Then the southeast should look bush abi

So no one is talking about South East abi?

What of SE.

I swear most of these senators or very sick,instead of looking for a very good means of tackling Nigerian problems,all you care is who become nig next president. Shame.

😂 I am still 😂

Sometimes you goof. You're not interested in competence but because of UPROOTING... You need to change medication now. Stop positioning yourself for Tinubu's recognition. That's eye service.

Political statement. Because you are fighting with air rufuai, it therefore makes sense to oppose every of his moves/statements? Lol Power must remain in the north by 2023.

Mr, Senetor Sir nobody denies them presidency comes 2023. The problem is to bring a candidate that can be sales out in our country Nigeria. To make sure the party he contest WINS the election. Lastly some Igbo are after biafra not the President this is another problem.

Former senator Kaduna central what you talking about is nonsense because no zonal presidency in Nigeria priod

Is the south east region of the country NO LONGER A PART of nigeria?

👍

In all fairness, the SE should be allowed to produce the presidency in 2023 for equity, justice and fairness. So I advise Shehu Sani to just shut up and remain irrelevant as he has chosen to be.

ShehuSani what happened to the south east ...who have never produce a president since 1999...talking about fairness.....

Just negodu

What about southeast

So SouthEast is not part of this country? Not even anyne think of mentioning this region for presidency , Oppression ! Yet they could not be allowed to go VERY MUCH UNFAIR to the East

Sani is like you are trying to drag the little reputation u have to the mud? Does your statement sound sane to you southwest, meaning that to you we have just southwest and North, your hatred for the eastners are glare

Should be South East

So southeast is not part of Nigeria, I thought you are different Sani

Here we go, no wonder they keep talking about oduduwa, as if say na oduduwa send people go school. All this scheming won't work.😏🤣

And it will be fair to deny the south east presidency.

How about South East? You guys ain't talking about them.

He has been bought already hahaha

Loud it

Kai! What about the South East.....?

No wise person would want to become president of a near-bankrupt desertified nation lacking respect becos of its extreme poverty, insecurity, internal refugees, corruption, poor health, lowest school enrollment, high mortality rate, and poor leadership?

You always speak from 3 or more sides of the mouth.

What about South East

I disagree with you on this, so other regions should just keep looking. Lets be rational in our thinking.

With agreed rotational arrangement, there will be no need for INEC or election. Just select. No need for wasting fund. No server. So we keep lying to ourselves that we want an election when we can just rotate and rest.

Southwest? What of east? Modafuckas

Nice speaking Senator Sani

Marveled that ShehuSani Is canvassing for the Southwest when they have had their fair share of 8 years with other ZONES in the region yet to to be represented. Given his political profile and probable trickle effect of his opinion, I urge him to guide his followers properly.

South East is next.

South east is the region that is yet to occupy the exalted Office. For the good of all in Nigeria 😎

Oga, thank you sir. South West knows how to do their things. Leave us to do our things ourselve. Regards.

In a democracy, are presidents produced through 'fairness' or voting? It's shocking what stupid things that prominent Nigerians say in public.

this man has started campaigning for Osibanjo

Southeast...

They cannot deny Southwest they new is our turn to move to the villa Aso Rock await any candidate nominated

No region deserves the presidency more in 2023 than the south east.

Help me lecture them please. Greed is dangerous o.
