2023: Fayose May Dump Atiku To Support Tinubu, Insists On Southern Presidency

Ayodele Fayose Insists On Southern Presidency

In a post shared on his Twitter page on Wednesday, June 29, the former governor demanded that a southerner must succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

He kicked against the emergence of the former vice-president, Atiku Abubakar, as the presidential candidate of the major opposition party, insisting that the PDP constitution provides for a rotational Presidency.

Fayose also tweeted that “awa south lo kan” — which means “it is the turn of the south”. The remark is a reference to the catchphrase attributed to Tinubu of APC.

He wrote, “The PDP Constitution provides for a rotational Presidency. Section 3(c) provides that the Party shall pursue its aims & objectives by adhering to the policy of the rotation & zoning of Party & Public elective offices in pursuance of the principle of equity, justice and fairness.

“The current President of Nigeria is a 2-term Northern Presidency, thus implying that it MUST be a Southern Presidency in 2023 or NOTHING. Awa “South’ lo kan’. Nigerians should await details soon.”
