“Leave The South To Complete Its 8 Years!”—Shehu Sani Challenges Opposition To Field Heavyweights In 2027
Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has advocated that the Southern region should be permitted to complete a full eight-year presidential tenure before power shifts back to the North in 2031.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Sani clarified that while rotational presidency is not explicitly written into the Nigerian Constitution, upholding it serves the interests of equity, justice, peace, and national unity. He drew comparisons to former President Muhammadu Buhari’s eight years in office (2015–2023), noting that the South did not mount a serious challenge to unseat him during that period.
Key Positions Shared by Shehu Sani:
-
Call for Southern Candidates: Sani urged all political parties to field Southern heavyweights for the 2027 presidential election.
-
Party-Specific Suggestions: He specifically proposed that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) should field Rotimi Amaechi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) should field Peter Obi, and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) should field Seyi Makinde to slug it out for a single four-year term.
-
Atiku’s Constitutional Right: Sani emphasized that his stance does not bar former Vice President Atiku Abubakar from contesting, noting that Atiku possesses the constitutional right to run for any election.
-
The Fate of Rotation: He warned that if Atiku wins in 2027, it would effectively signal the permanent end of rotational presidency in Nigeria and spark bitter resentment from the Southern region.
-
A Smooth Path for 2031: Sani concluded that allowing the South its full eight years would pave the way for an unchallengeable Northern transition by 2031.
