Ex-presidential aide to former President, Goodluck Jonathan,
has emphatically declared that the presidency will not return to the North in
2027.
Okupe, who made the assertion on Monday during an interview
with Arise TV, tackled those agitating for the Northern presidency in the next
election.
He identified sectionalism as the “most fundamental problems
why Nigeria is stagnating”, stressing that “those who control the affairs of
this nation, in terms of politics before now, were more interested in national
interest than sectional interest”.
He stated, “I say this authoritatively without any fear of contradiction or equivocation, in 2027, power cannot return to the North yet. That’s not how we do it.”
“We rotate between the North and the South. The North does
eight years, at the end of which the South does eight years.
“I’m not saying that Bola Tinubu must be president in 2027,
but it’s not going to be a northerner,” he explained.

So you know it's rotational? When it was suppose to be the time of the south east, the tribal Yoruba said it was their turn. I can tell you, if you think you can oppréss others because of your numbers, other will oppréss you same with numbers. The south south and south east will never trust you again when the north is oppréssing the south west
