Former Senate President, Bukola Saraki has said that it is only fair to allow the South to complete its 8 years presidency.

Saraki made this statement on Thursday while fielding questions in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.

The former Kwara state governor clarified that he would not be running for presidency in 2027.

“I think it is only fair to allow the South to complete its 8 years. I was one of those that supported that PDP should zone presidency to the south in 2027.

“So when the party met last year to discuss what it should do about zoning of presidency, I was one of those that supported that the party should zone the presidency to the south in 2027, and to align with that and abide by the party decision.

Remember, in 2023 the final decision of the party was that the candidates could come from anywhere.

“But in the meeting we held about the 2027 election, we said the presidency should come from the south, and I abide by that, and as such, ruled out the issue of me wanting the contest in 2027,” he said.

Although the pump price of fuel was N197 when President Bola Tinubu took over on May 29, 2023, the product now sells for N617 per litre – less than two months after.

In his inaugural address, Tinubu announced that subsidy was gone, fulfilling a promise that all leading presidential candidates made during the campaign.

Nigerians have been lamenting the hardship occasioned by fuel price hike. Amid the lamentation, a video where Tinubu campaigned to slash the price of fuel went into circulation.

Checks by Daily Trust affirmed the authenticity of the video uploaded on the YouTube page of Channels Television.

At his campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on January 25, 2023, Tinubu spoke on a number of issues, but those of fuel scarcity and naira redesign made the headlines.

However, Tinubu who spoke in Yoruba language, also assured the crowd that though people were saying petrol price would hit N200, it would be reviewed downward under him.

“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200 per litre. Go and relax, we will bring it down,” he had said in the 7th minute of the video.
