he is making sense actually,the best and qualified man should be allowed to do the job .zoning breeds mediocrity just like how it produced the dullard for president just because the north felt it was their . The right people should be allowed to do the job not minding where he comes from,zoning is a proof that Nigeria is not one and not united. 1 Like |

Danny287: All eastern politicians have lost their right to answer president of a country as they support continuation of one Nigeria. Arewa could have been stampeded to "appoint" one easterner as president if Eastern politicians had capitalized on the moves by IPOB. Can't Duke see that even an illiterate leper from northern region can defeat him in presidential race, once northern political class decides north must produce the president? Nwodo of Ohaneze is also a one Nigerian. He zones presidency to north uptill 2027. By then the extant political structure and governAnce system must have been solidified, such that it can be treason to ask for restructuring Nigeria politically. In fact, politicians of old Eastern region have sold themselves to Fulani. They can't agree on Biafra, they can't agree on anything. Igbo youths have taken over the politics of the east. 1 Like |

OjukwuWarBird: My friend zoning has never included the minorities. Its either Igbo, Hausa or Yoruba. Jonathan didn't get it on zoning but on the sentiments of his Yar Adua incumbency... I don't like PDP but I'd fancy Donald Duke's Presidency. 1 Like |

OjukwuWarBird: I am not spreading any lies. The fact is the north is more populated than the south. The south is more densely populated that is more people compared to a square meter. But when it comes to numbers, the north has it. How many men in the south has up to 15 children. Also the current schematics of Nigeria favours a northern presidency for life. So until these defects are worked on, zoning is in the best interest of the south. I am not happy with these facts being a southerner and Igbo for that matter, but I am a realist. So instead of trying to rant, we can only work around it by acknowledging it first, then trying to beat the odds. Chest beating can't do that. 3 Likes |

Zoning is illogical, unconstitutional, unprogressive and parochial. I don't support it. Although, I understand the viewpoint of my compatriots - the majority - that clamour for it, which is because they're sentimental, tribalistic, unconscientious, fanatically religious and outright small-minded. Politics on principle and conviction are all we need to advance democratically, also its the key to our entrance into the eldorado of a country we all long for. 2 Likes |

Nigeria isn't a nation. It is just a forced marriage and that is why things like zoning are put in place to appease all parties involved in this marriage. But how long can it last? How long will merit continue to be the sacrificial lamb for these primitive and negative sentiments? 1 Like |

Connoisseur: @the bolded, this is a wrong assumption, if the north truly has all the population CPC would have won the Presidential elections in 2011 after cornering majority of the votes in the north. As it is now, it will take majority votes from 4 geopolitical regions out of six to get into aso rock, do the maths. Zoning is what is killing our polity. GEJ did not loose cos of zoning but simply he could not gather enough votes from 4 geopolitical zones. I flow with donald duke, do you think any politician truly respects zoning, they only support zoning when it suits them 1 Like |

49cents: Obasanjo made overtures to Donald Duke and tried to recruit him to run on the ticket with YarAdua. Duke declined to be Yar'Aduas' running mate. He is alleged to have said that he would not be vice to anybody. Probably the greatest miscalculation of his political career. 1 Like |
