The Arewa Consultative Youth
Forum, AYCF, has claimed that a national leader of the All Progressives
Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu and his cabals have taken over the country.
AYCF President General, Yerima
Shettima stated this in an interview while lamenting that the
South-West was allegedly ruling the country by proxy.
Reacting to clamours that the
South-East should produce Nigeria’s President in 2023, Shettima insisted that
power must remain in the North because Tinubu and his cabals have allegedly
taken over the country.
He stated that North will hold
unto power in 2023 after which it may decide to handover to the South-East.
According to Shettima: “To be
very honest with you, the question of power moving back to the South does not
even arise; a case where one of our own from the North is a President, they
deliberately put him there and they are milking the entire country in the
interest of the South-West and South and you think we will waste this eight
years of this administration that does not have a clear direction of what they
would do for other parts of the country, it won’t work.
“Mindful of the fact that from
the result of the just-concluded election, we see the entire number of votes
that came out of the entire South and the North is a clear indication that the
issue of rotation does not even arise.
“So, the question of power going
back to the South does not arise. We have to get our own share of the national
cake. So what we are experiencing now is a confusion as South-West enjoying it
and they are the same people clamouring for the presidency in 2023, they should
forget it.
“The organogram of the man in
Bourdillon will not work and you know who I’m referring to and we will ensure
that the cabal in Lagos does not get it that easy. Power remains in the North
until we get our own share before we now begin to consider the South-East that
has been marginalised over the years.
“But for now, we can’t afford to
lose power because we need to ensure that things work, don’t forget that the
North is at war and we have lost a lot of things and poverty is high compared
to other parts of the country and we can’t fold our hand for others to take
power so we suffer for another eight years. Already, we are suffering, they
should be fair to Nigerians, North is part of the country.
“The North is only ruling the
country by proxy, you can’t be doing our brother ‘wayo’ and say he’s in charge,
Tinubu and his aides have taken over the entire country. The Vice President,
the super Minister, Fashola are all in the benefit of the South-West and this
is unacceptable, they only programme our brother and send him to the UK while
they rule the country.”

Enter your comment...If there's no competent candidate from the north are they going to forcefully impose themselves on southerners? Besides, their they have just four years to go. So why argue and insisting?
