LegendHero:
El-Rufai is right. APC zoned the presidency ticket to the South because no micro zoning should be allowed. That will be baby politics.

Now all the gladiators of the South will contest for the ticket and the strongest man will emerge.

Asiwaju Jagaban, Dave Umahi, Orji Kalu are the three candidates that indicated interest to run for now. They and other candidates that will indicate interest will contest the primaries and a winner will emerge.
Did you see were he chipped in that all positions held by south south would go to north central

Then he said all positions held by north west would go to south east

If North central is the one paralleling south south it automatically means as north central is head of party it's parallel south south would head government

They are not bringing micro zone yet but he just craftily gave you an hint with that parallel narrative which would come in later

All the positions held by the north will be swap to the south

Northwest position goes to south east...Hmmm, and the president comes from the northwest, meaning that by way of this swapping the south east gets the presidency. If u know u know.
Elrufai is a master strategist aswear
lol not east

They are master strategist to have brought this formula

If you parallel North central with south south in the flip formula

It means that North central is heading party and south south should head government

Lol! Your interest is really making you equate “swap” with “parallel”. Not like you don’t know that those two words are different on a normal.

lol, can't you see the gimmick

Buhari was not elected based on sharing formula or zoning, as the first APC president he was chosen because he was most likely to get votes in the north upon which they rotated all positions around his candidacy

This is the first time in APC history they are electing president based on zoning and the party zoning has just kicked started how the zone of president would take shape

If NC heads party the new parallel ss would head government

the two are the same intention in the APC context

If you swap North east with south west instead of south east is that truly a parallel swap?

There is an unseen motive behind such a parallel swap

It's all an agenda to force the position of secretary on the south west, that way it won't have a clamour against south south when it already control biggest southern post

Again if NC control party, south south is the defined parallel of the party in the zoning arrangements

Your opinion is insignificant, ss would head government

Indications emerged on Thursday that the All Progressive Congress APC presidential ticket is still open to all contestants in the South West, South East and South-South.

Governor Nasir El-Rufai dropped this hint on Thursday while briefing Journalists at the Media briefing organized by the Presidential Media team, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.


The Governor while responding to questions on the zoning of the party approved by President Mohammadu Buhari on Tuesday, revealed, however, that the zoning arrangements was to send signals about the party’s direction

“ What we have done with the zoning we presented to Mr President on Tuesday and which he approved, is sending a signal about the directions of the party, it is not about zoning the Presidency to anyone yet. But we have sent the signal.

The Governor who confirmed that the Presidency has been zoned to the South added that “ It is not zoned to any particular place in the South. But we are waiting to see who the aspirants are. A few people have declared their interest. We are waiting.

“I want to clarify that the APC zoning arrangements that we announced are the zoning arrangements for the party.

He disclosed that the party had always done that in the last three elections that it had.

“When we elected John Oyegun as chairman, we had this zoning arrangement. Each of the six zones had offices allocated to them. We also carried that along when we elected Adams Oshimhole as our National Chairman.

“All we did now is to flip it. Since the chairman is going to be from North Central, it means that the North Central will take all the positions of South-South. If you check, you will see that all the positions allocated to the North Central were the positions held by the South-South under Oyegun and Oshiomhole.


Similarly, he revealed that all the positions held by North West went to the South East and vice versa.

Under the new arrangements, all the positions held by North West will be going to the South East and those held by the North East will go to the South West.

“That is why the South West will produce the Party’s National Secretary.

“We are not talking about the Presidency yet. When we do this convention and elect our national officers, then we start preparing for the party convention that will produce our candidates for National Assembly and the Presidency. That is when that conversation will come up”


Speaking on whether he will support a South West candidate, el- Rufai said he will support any qualified candidate from the south.

“I will support any APC candidate if I am satisfied that he will do the best for Nigeria. It doesn’t matter if he is from South West, South East, South-South. APC and the quality of the person us what matters.

He however added that only the President’s decision will influence his choice in exceptional cases

“All I can tell you is that unless in an exceptional situation, whoever President Buhari tells me, this is the person I want, that is where I am going, because I trust his judgement.

“Now, if I disagree, I will go into the room and tell him. We have done that a few times and he knows. If he still insists that Nasir, I have heard you, but this is what I want, I will say ok. I will do it”

On his ambition for 2023, the Kaduna Governor whose second term ends in 2023, denied having other ambitions aside from writing books.

El- Rufai revealed how the President had in 2014 forced him to contest the governorship election against his own will


“ I have zero ambition, I just want to finish this job and get on with my private life, write another book, and make tons of money. The largest amount of money I ever got in my life was writing the “ Accidental Public Servant” and it is still selling.

“So, I have never had any ambition. If I die today, I am satisfied, accomplished and happy because I never in my life, based on my humble background, ever thought that I would even enter this building ( the Presidential Villa). How would I ever enter the office where the President is? So, for me, even being here is a privilege if you know my background.

“God has been very kind to me and my outings in public service have all been satisfactory and why push my luck and even with a job with 90percent of failure.

“I am not an ambitious person. I am just a person that gets things done when given the opportunity.

“That is why I have never lobbied for a job, or desired any. Even this Governorship, it was President Mohammadu Buhari that literally forced me to run.

“I wasn’t interested in it. I just wanted us to defeat former President Goodluck Jonathan and I will come to the Villa and enjoy myself.

He declared that his intention was to serve as special adviser ( domestic) to the President.

“ Anytime they are flying to New York, I will be there. That was my ambition, I would not have had grey hairs. The President insisted that some of us must go and run for Governorship, just in case he did not get elected again. He felt that we needed some strong Governors, those were the words he used. I was forced into this.

“I never desired to be Minister of the FCT. Obasanjo just called me and said he wanted me to be the Minister,

“ I never wanted to be the director-general of BPE, I was drafted into it. So, I have zero ambitions, I have no aspirations”

you actually said nothing

El-rufai didn't deny any shit, he said they take all instructions from the president who has a candidate

The president who has a candidate has lambasted your Yoruba god who wants to sit in Lagos and decide for APC

Is your god no longer national leader of the party?

Why is he never in the meeting in the party he formed

As you can see this is no longer afonja party, Buhari has kicked your sorry ass

I read this interview and no where microzone was mentioned.
People are just here analyzing an explicit statement.
The president will come from South.
So far in APC, Tinubu has shown capacity and I won't be surprised anymore if he gets the ticket.
Except the party assuage Tinubu and give the ticket to South East; apart from that, the party will caput.
The momentum of Kwankwaso and co should be taken serious and if Tinubu teams up with Kwankwaso, NW and SW will be interesting.
But in my observation, I think president is coming to East.
Mind you; I hit my target. Helinus will attest to it.

It's obvious they want to zone the presidency to the SE or SS but are waiting to see who will be the most malleable and easily manipulated.

But trust the propagandists from the other side, they're already twisting the story.

However, he is not Igbo but Ikwerre.

Maybe or maybe not. Besides, SW collected two slots of which they should have conceded one to another region. In 2019, there were ranking members in APC from the East yet they insisted they would get the speakership slot despite having VP already
