The Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, has warned Southern governors
over their resolutions on 2023 presidency and their ban of open grazing.
National Secretary of the body, Saleh Alhassan, warned that
Southern governors may not get the presidency if they opt to blackmail the
North.
Southern governors had on Monday called for a rotational
presidency, stressing that their region should produce Nigeria’s next
president.
During their meeting held in Lagos, the governors also
agreed to ban open grazing across the region.
Reacting, Alhassan accused the governors of playing politics
with their resolutions.
He said the Southern governors were “hungry for power in
2023”.
The Miyetti Allah National Secretary said herders are not
concerned about where the presidency is zoned to in 2023.
He said: “For herders, it doesn’t matter where the president
comes from but if they want the power to move to the South, should it be
through blackmail? It should be by negotiation, campaign, and strategy as well
as political understanding. And mind you, this thing is based on numerical
strength.
“If Southern governors want to blackmail the North, they may
not get the presidency. They are only hungry for power with the direction they
are going,” he told Tribune.
