The Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, has blasted the
Presidency for stating that President Bola Tinubu would stay in power till
2031.
The ACF advised the President Tinubu-led administration to
focus on delivering good governance to Nigerians, instead of obsessing over the
2027 election.
The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF,
George Akume, had on Sunday urged northern political leaders preparing to
contest the 2027 presidential election to put aside their ambitions and wait
until 2031 when Tinubu would have ended his second term.
Akume, in a TVC programme, had said that Tinubu as a
southerner should be allowed to have a second term, meaning that those eyeing
the Presidency from the North in 2027 should look beyond that year by waiting
till 2031.
However, ACF National Publicity Secretary, Prof. Tukur
Muhammad-Baba, while responding to Akume, stated that it was too early to start
debating the 2027 presidential election.
According to Mohammad-Baba, the ACF won’t take a partisan
stance on who should be voted for or against, saying that its primary concern
was the wellbeing of the electorate.
