The governor said zoning – which is an arrangement that ensures rotation of political power among ethnic blocs — is a luxury that only ruling parties can afford.
Responding to a question, he said, “When I came on board, people were saying no, the position shouldn’t control us because of my ethnic group but there was an argument that we are an opposition party. What we want to do is to win elections. When asked to state his position on the raging zoning debate, the governor responded, “It depends; as an opposition party, we look at all variables. Forget about other parties. We look at all variables and our own concern is how do we win? how do we get back power?
Mamman Daura, a nephew and ally of the President, had stirred a debate last week when he stated that zoning should not determine who emerges the next President in 2023.
