THE apex socio-cultural group of the Yoruba people, Afenifere, and the Pan Niger Delta Forum have maintained that the rotation of the Nigerian presidency between the North and the South was not negotiable.

Speaking in a separate interview with The PUNCH on Sunday, the Secretary General of Afenifere, Sola Ebiseni, said the issue of rotational presidency between the North and South was a national consensus.Ebiseni said, “The political culture since 1999 at the return to democratic rule is that the office of the President of Nigeria is rotated between the North and South.

“We have expressed our support for the declaration of the southern governors that the next President of Nigeria should come from the South. As a result of that declaration, every governor from the South should be gentlemanly enough to abide by that declaration. There was also a resolution at the 2014 National Conference that the presidency of Nigeria should be rotated between the North and the South. It is a national consensus.

“It is human nature; man is a selfish being, and if you allow the northerners, they would want to rule for 30 years. They know the benefits they have appropriated to themselves in the nepotistic Buhari administration.
