Why North-central Can’t Produce Nigeria’s President In 2023 –senator by Deltafirstson(m): 4:44am On Sep 06, 2021
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Alex Kadiri has urged party members from the North Central Zone to concentrate on securing the National Chairmanship of the APC instead of decimating energy in seeking for the presidency in 2023.

The ex-lawmaker who represented Kogi East from 1999 to 2003 in the Senate said this in an interview with Journalists in Abuja, on Sunday.

Kadiri said, “I am a recognized leader in the North- Central. They invite me to all their meetings. There is nobody of substance who has the capacity to be President from North Central in 2023. Please, prove me wrong and bring that person. At my age, I am not looking for anything from anybody. I am not looking for work. I can only speak my mind now.”

He equally made a case for a President of Southern extraction as successor for the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

The former federal lawmaker said, “Olusegun Obasanjo was President of Nigeria for eight years. Now Yemi Osinbajo is Vice President and in 2023, he would have spent eight years. I think for the sake of fairness, it is only right and proper for the people of the South-West to shelve the idea of producing the President.

“North-West should also forget it. The South-Easterners are my in-laws and there are more Igbos coming to this house than any other tribe in Nigeria because of my wife.

“So, I cannot have ill feelings towards an Igbo man. The fact of the matter is that Igbos with their republican attitude to everything can’t be President of Nigeria this present time (2023).

“Whether you like it or not, Rotimi Amaechi still stands as a viable person. He has the experience, and good health. Anybody we are considering today as President must be healthy. We can’t move from Yar’ Adua (Umaru) to Buhari (Muhammadu) and then to Tinubu (Bola). If Amaechi and Zulum can put their acts together, this country can move forward.”

I suggest they should zone the presidency to South and take the national chairman of the party
