The Northern Elders Forum has proclaimed that the north has the numbers to produce a president. More so, the group said Nigeria’s northern region won’t play second fiddle to any other region ahead of the 2023 presidential election
According to the Director of Publicity and Advocacy of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, “We will lead Nigeria the way we have led Nigeria before, whether we are President or Vice President, we will lead Nigeria. We have the majority of the votes and democracy says vote whom you want.
Recall that some members of Nigeria’s northern political elite have recently been speaking against a gentleman’s rotational presidency agreement, which sees Nigeria’s presidency oscillating between north and south every eight years.
