Olusegun Bamgbose, Esq., National Coordinator, Concerned Advocates for Good Governance, CAGG, has said that even though former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, is constitutionally qualified to run in the 2023 presidential election, he is ethically and morally unfit and ineligible to contest.

Bamgbose noted that there is a very strong indication that Atiku may likely contest again come 2023following a hint by one of his sons, Adamu, who yesterday stated that his father will try again.

Atiku was the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2019 general election. He was defeated by the incumbent President, Muhammadu Buhari, of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

“Constitutionally, the former Vice President is qualified to contest, but ethically and morally, he is unfit and ineligible to contest,” the senior lawyer, who has also indicated interest to run in the election, said in a statement to DAILY POST on Tuesday.

Bamgbose said that the move by the former VP has shown he has no atom of regard and respect for the Southern part of Nigeria.

“There is still a subsisting unwritten gentleman agreement, that power should, as a matter of political convenience, rotate between the North and the South,” he said.

“In 2023, other things being equal, President Buhari would have spent 8 years as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“Power, ordinarily should shift to the South. Atiku’s Presidential ambition come 2023 will constitute a flagrant breach of the gentleman agreement.

“In essence, it’s morally and politically despicable for Atiku to still indicate interest in 2023 Presidential elections. It’s unjust and unpatriotic of him to insist on contesting again come 2023.

“Where is his professed love for one Nigeria? Does he truly have regard for the youths of this country? Does he really consider the interest of the Southerners? His ambition will certainly jeopardize his political reputation.


It’s my humble view that it’s time for Atiku to call it a quit from politics. He should give room for others to come up. He should forget his Presidential ambition for the sake of justice, equity and fair play.

“If truly he believes in one Nigeria, it’s time for him to throw in the towel and be a mentor or elder statesman. He should steer clear of Presidential elections and groom people to take over.

“I sincerely commend Mallam Nasir El-Rufai categorical statement, that there is no justification for a Northerner to take over power, after Buhari’s eight years as President. This is honourable of him.


“He believes that it’s just for the power to go back to the South. He further said earlier this year, ‘I think that every politician of honour should understand and abide by that consensus.’ He was referring to rotational Presidency.

“He wonderfully capped it up by submitting it this way ‘I want to say that those of us from Northern Nigeria honour agreements. We do not violate unwritten political agreements, and I will be the last person to lead in violating that agreement’

“This is a great statement that will be on the marble forever. This is very commendable. Atiku’s ambition will certainly violate the unwritten but sacrosanct agreement.

“Atiku should, therefore, toe the line of El-Rufai, as a politician of Honour and repute. It’s time for him to tell Nigerians that his love for one Nigeria is genuine.”

Dear Olusegun Bamgbose,

If by power shifting to the South by 2023 means Osinbajo,Tinubu or any South wasterner to take over, then let the North keep their thing.


"Atiku should, therefore, toe the line of El-Rufai, as a politician of Honour and repute. It’s time for him to tell Nigerians that his love for one Nigeria is genuine.”

If Bamgbose is smart, he would have known El rufai stand a better chance than any candidate from SW.

Okoo

- Which Gentleman agreement?...
- who and who agreed to the Gentleman agreement?...
- which conference determined that?...
- Which constitution upheld that?...

While some people want presidency, others might want Vice-president, some might even want Senate president, while some dont even want at all again..

Justice does not work only when you want it..

Bamgbose said that the move by the former VP has shown he has no atom of regard and respect for the Southern part of Nigeria.
A certain region will still vote for him, inasmuch as Yoruba man is the opposing candidate.

They like voting for Fulanis against Yoruba

Please shove this your useless propaganda away..

- Balewa was prime minister
- Ekwueme was vice under Shagari
- Abiola/Tofa was 45/55% respectively
- Obasanjo was Yoruba and voted 100%
- Yar-Adua was supported by all (no abstinance)
- Jonathan was supported by all (no abstinance)
- You voted against GEJ for Buhari(Fulani)

Your attached picture even had a command to attack people because they fail to vote you, have you ever voted them?

In as much as it's not in the constitution, it's an unwritten agreement..

What unwritten agreement, that was a party private party policy, it holds no water.

The constitution has a required basic for every contestant.

How ever way you want to twist it... Obasanjo remains a Yoruba man and he was overwhelmingly voted for.

You said you voted GEJ out because he reduced you to nothing, But the duo you voted for that reduced others to 5% and poverty is worth another try?...

I have always maintained that justice and fairness is always thrown out the window anytime it affects some Nigerians..

Balewa was a prime minister because of Nnamdi Azikiwe

Even if it is 45%-55% it doesn't change the fact Abiola lost in south east .

Obasanjo was not Yoruba candidate thats why he lost in yorubaland in 1999.

Do you know what 45% means from a region?... that is huge despite Tofa having a SE VP (Sylvester ugoh)..

Obasanjo is still a Yoruba man, he was voted for against an Ekwueme of SE..

Balewa won because he had to join heads with over 5 political parties, singling out Nnamdi Azikiwe just to fit into the propaganda really does not make sense.

, abiola lost election in south east the margin of victory is inconsequential.
Obasanjo lost election in yorubaland in 1999 meaning he was not Yoruba candidate. He was imposed

Obasanjo may not have been the candidate of (a section of yorubas) not all yorubas..

Abiola lost by 5% to an indigene and you tag it inconsequential.. well atleast return the favour of the 45%..

True

under the PDP;

OBJ South

Yaradua North

GEJ South

So on the PDP platform its the turn of the north


under the APC;

GMB North

so on the platform of APC it's the turn of the South.

All the emotional blackmail called rotation won't stop various regions from contesting for Aso rock
