MEANWHILE, THE PAN-NORTHERN SOCIO-POLITICAL ORGANISATION, AREWA CONSULTATIVE FORUM (ACF), HAS SAID IT HAS NO OBJECTION TO A SOUTHERNER BECOMING NIGERIA’S PRESIDENT IN 2023.
IT, HOWEVER, SAID IT WOULD NOT INTERFERE IN A MATTER THAT HAD TO DO WITH POLITICAL PARTIES OR SUPPORT A PARTICULAR ZONE OR CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY OR ANY OTHER OFFICE.
THE ACF’S NATIONAL PUBLICITY SECRETARY, EMMANUEL YAWE, WHO MADE THIS KNOWN TO OUR CORRESPONDENT, SAID THE IMPRESSION CREATED THAT NORTHERNERS WOULD NEVER SUPPORT A SOUTHERNER TO BECOME THE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNTRY WAS WRONG.
