2023 Presidency: No Zoning Arrangement In Apc’s Constitution-ibrahim Shekarau by MyopicMods: 8:13pm On Jan 03, 2021
Ibrahim Shekarau has stated that it is a matter of "common sense" to give power to the south after the north's 8 years in power

- The former minister and Kano governor also dismissed the argument that the there is zoning arrangement for the presidency in APC

- Shekarau said it is about "balance, justice and fairness" that the power be rotated among the regions in the country.

The conversation on the 2023 presidency has taken another dimension as Malam Ibrahim Shekarau said that there is no arrangement for the zoning of the presidency in the constitution of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The former two-term Kano state governor and former minister made this known on Sunday, January 3, while answering questions from journalists.

The senator representing Kano Central, however, noted that it is by the virtue of common sense and fairness that the power should leave the north to the southern region of the country, Daily Trust reports.

Shekarau, who said there are "hundreds of qualified presidential candidates", further maintained that the principle of balancing should be employed in the zoning of the presidential ticket come 2023.

“I don’t talk of zoning but balancing. My belief is that today in Nigeria, there is no one state that does not have hundreds of qualified presidential candidate.
"So it should not be about killing oneself for which area produces the president. It should be ‘who is it’ and not ‘where he is from.”
The former governor also noted that "there is the constitution of common sense, people have to use it"

Thank you for bringing to fore what His Excellency said. That is how they'll go about twisting what people are saying just to cause ethnic disharmony.
