President Muhammadu Buhari has said he would not name his likely successor when his administration winds up in 2023.

President Buhari said this on Tuesday while receiving members of the Progressive in Academics (Pro-Acad) at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, Igbere TV reports.

The group had asked him to start grooming a young person who would replace him when his second term tenure expires in 2023.

Buhari said that identifying anybody as his successor would create problems for him, warning that no one should think he can just become president overnight.

The president said it took him a lot of hard work and persistence to win a presidential election after three previous unsuccessful attempts.

He also blamed state governments for the condition of Almajiri system in the country.

Buhari said that identifying anybody as his successor would create problems for him, warning that no one should think he can just become president overnight.

With this word, it is an indication that he's adopting Tinubu to succeed him.

lol You guys are trying so hard to pitch Buhari against Tinubu

Lol 2022 would be a serious game.

If APC Fields Tinubu, PDP would field a Northerner leaving Igbos to Nothing.
As Much as i am an Igbo Man i can tell you that An Igbo Man would never be president come 2023,
Igbos should seek for Restructuring but i know its not possible because the north has the highest number of People in the House
So the only way out is Secession

Tinubu boy

these afonja warriors never cease to amaze me.Even in the SW Tinubu does not even control all the senators in that region let alone the otehr regions where he has zero political influence

I think Buhari used the last card on white washing a president, same way GEJ used up "poor home, without a shoe" card...

Let no one deceive you, the next president would be a proven learned individual, possibly a technocrat not tilted to tribal or religious affiliations.

Don't worry we already know... between El rufia and bola TINUBU..

Open secret.

This man is too dull, he’s yet to complete his tenure, but already talking about his successor.

One thing I am happy about is the fact that he was elected after failing so many times, dumb people thought this dullard is their savior, thank goodness he proved me right.

For Buhari ...
...next president is between TINUBU and elrufia..
Except if..the northern oligarchy says otherwise...
APC government already working towards Ahmed TINUBU/elrufia. 4 years ...

Is an open secret at the Villa.

You said my mind, but the guy is not popular,unless Buhari gives him a very strong ministry to handle to showcase himself, if not, nothing for him

Right for self determination is in the UN.
A Referendum would be Conducted by the UN soon.
