Speaking in an interview with The New Telegraph, Chairman of the Forum, Professor Ango Abdullahi, said if President Buhari fails to seek re-election in 2019, the North must retain the presidency by fielding a candidate from the region through the ruling APC.
"The constitutional provision says that in the event that the president dies in office or becomes incapacitated for one reason or the other and cannot perform the duties of his office, he will be succeeded by the Vice president. But no one is in a position to know at what point he is going to recover fully and come back to office, or whether the unexpected could happen. If the worst case scenario happens, and Buhari is not back on seat, the constitution is very clear that the vice president takes over. And what we then expect is that he will take that tenure to its logical end and from there, the politics of power sharing will take precedence over anything else. When the unexpected happens, in 2019, we will be back to our position that the north should be treated equitably and fairly. And we expect that another northern candidate will emerge as presidential candidate on the platform of APC”he said
They love power but never do anything good with it. Just look at the poverty and illiteracy level in Northern Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to rule, please rule only the Northern part of Nigeria. We are tired of cows ruling us and herdsmen killing us or boko haram giving us sleepless nights. Let the country divide into two, let the South rule the South while the North rule the North. We are tired!!!!

DeleteIs this the kind of thing that they should even be saying at this time when Mr President is still alife? Are you wishing him dead? How can you say "if anything happens to Buhari? Watch your choice of words and stop being tribalistic
DeleteIf Nigeria decides that it is Osinbajo they want, there is nothing you or anybody can do about it. So let Nigeria decide!
DeleteThis country should just divide abeg. I am tired of these arrogant fools boasting up and down. Because of them, boko haram is disturbing us. Because of them, fulani herdsmen are destroying our farms and killing us yet they are preaching that we should go into agriculture when their useless herdsmen wont allow our farms to produce crops. Because of them, they are killing chrisians in Kaduna. Because of them, Nigeria cannot move forward as a result of their backward religion & culture of marrying under-aged girls. Up till now, they have not been able to solve the problem of the killings in Southern Kaduna and the killings done by the herdsmen and they want power and want us to vote for them. Arant Nonsense!
DeleteNo problem. Osinbajo will rule the South while you Northern elders will rule your North. Muslims should stay in the North while christians stay in the South. This country must divide because we are fed up of muslims killing christians. This is the only way that peace can be restored

ReplyDeleteThat's why the country is in such a mess. We're less concerned with the better candidate who can deliver good but we prefyour own brother even if he has nothing to offer.
ReplyDeleteWho cares. The corruption is still going on under him.He's not any different from his predecessors..
ReplyDeletemr ango bokoharam, i pity all u aboki's. You are inherently genetically handicapped. You folks r mentally, socially, cognitively and even mostly physically challenged. The power you folks so strenuously always want to hold unto has done you absolutely no good. Northern Nigeria is the most backward race in west africa and one of the worst in the world. why wont you allow us continue to take you people as brothers and help you, because by the time you people are intellectually emancipated,you wont be clamoring for power, cos you'd be self sufficient and satisfied, your days of shameless begging an hiding behind religious intolerance and violence, would be over.
ReplyDeleteFools talking again. Who told these northern fools that buhari will win if he contest again. Waiting to see if southerners will foolish enough not to field a candidate.
ReplyDeleteYou northerners are so ridiculous in your thinking.Who told you Osinbajo will not run for president come that time.The Yorubas are the most educated people.No be by muscle,na by intelligence.The yoruba will out smart you fulani herdsmen (Daran daran)
ReplyDeleteReason been that youy idiots are fools, Nigerians will decide....I bet you need all stick you monkey ass down now, we vote for credibility not shit....
ReplyDeleteWhat crap! Who is he to say who can or can't run? I beg divide this country and let the North go
ReplyDeleteIt's good for the Yorubas. See the people they helped to power
ReplyDeleteCan you guys (be it Igbo,Hausa,Yoruba and others) quit talking about who rules next and who doesn't when Buhari is still alive. Talking about this over a sick man is distasteful and disgusting.
