Power Must Shift To The South In 2023 – APC Chieftain Insists.


Organising Secretary of APC in Adamawa, Alhaji Ahmed Lawal, has insisted that power must shift to the southern part of Nigeria in 2023. Lawal made the call in an interview in Yola, yesterday.

He stressed the need to demonstrate fairness in the polity, adding that the southern part of Nigeria supported the Northern part to retain power for eight years.

He advised the APC to ensure power rotation in 2023 to enhance national cohesion.
He rejected comments from those he called “some selfish northern politicians” intent on shortchanging the south in the scheme of power play.

The organising secretary said that the proponents of power retention in the north are selfish as they cannot claim to be speaking for the entire north.

“We must rotate power to southern Nigeria for the spirit of equity, fairness and harmony. As far as Nigerian unity is concerned, power shift must become a stabilising principle so that no region will feel relegated and oppressed politically.

“It was instructive that our political leaders sought support from southerners while APC was mobilising during 2015 election.

“It is glaring that they cooperated well as no southern APC politician contested the primary election during 2015 and even in 2019.

”If we want to be fair to them, let’s allow them to have a feel of power come 2023.”
