Former Chief Whip of the Nigerian Senate, Sir Roland Owie has urged former Lagos State Governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to forget his 2023 presidential ambition.
Roland Owie said the Northern region for fairness and equity sake still has about four years after 2023 to catch up with the south.
He noted that if however the major Political parties decide to zone the Presidency to the South, then it will only be logical for the South-East to produce the next President come 2023 not the South-West, EKO HOT BLOG gathered.

“If Tinubu knows that Nigeria has peace with this zoning, if he knows that do unto others as you will want them do unto you, he should not think of the presidency because if we all agree by 2023 that the presidency should come to the south, it is not to south west, it is not to south-south, it is to south-east”.
He pointed out that zoning produced former president Olusegun Obasanjo in 1999, it later produced late President Musa Yar’Adua whose death paved the way for Goodluck Jonathan to take over and urged Tinubu to respect it.
