 The forum, Yoruba Stakeholders Summit Group in Lagos, has said it is not the turn of the south-west yet to run for president in 2023. During a press conference organised by the group, the stress that there stand is in a bid to achieve fairness and equity within the nation, Jacinta Obyuku has more. The quest for where or who becomes the president has been the topic of discussion for most Nigerians. This is especially as 2023 presidential elections draw closer. Some have argued that it does not matter who or where the president comes from as far as competence is concerned. But the Yoruba Stakeholders Summit Group believes there are thousands of competent persons in southern region. There's an aggregate 10 years of president, vice president, senate president and speaker federal House of Representatives. We have observed with serious concern the open and silent demand and declaration by some politicians in the south-west, justing to succeed President Muamadubuari come 2023. Not only did we find this insensitive, but we also think it is self-serving and unjust. We are also of the strong opinion and conviction that some part of the southern Nigeria deserve the presidency more than the south-west. We need peace, okay? Give people sense of belonging. If I believe I have no stake in this pot of soup, I can as well throw stone inside. Or I break it from under. Or you renaissance inside. But if I believe I have a stake, no matter how poorly prepared, we guide the soup. There are people from Yoruba who are also aspiring to fight. They are eminently qualified. But we are just saying that for equity, fear, play and justice. There also appeared politicians who are asking that Zoni should be jettisoned, should realize that they are trying to perpetuate injustice, which is against the unity of the country. For us to move forward, we must be ready to embrace justice and let things be as it should be. Should we, because we remain into it, keep quiet in the face of this obvious calamity waiting to be followed as a nation and as a people? The question becomes, what has the South-South and the Southeast had over time? The only thing they probably have had in this Fourth Republic is the presence of a good lockdown that was even short-lived. There are different arguments and preferences who becomes the president. The board is in the court of citizens to decide the endurance number one public officer come 2023. Dasenta Obuiku for Plus TV Africa. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news.
