Ø Says it is a matter of “common sense” to give power to the South
Former minister and ex-Kano State governor, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau, has said that there is no arrangement for the zoning of the presidency in the constitution of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The former two-term Kano state governor and former Education minister made this known yesterday, while answering questions from newsmen.
The Senator representing Kano-Central, however, noted that it is by the virtue of common sense and fairness that the power should leave the north to the southern region of the country.
The former governor also noted that “there is the constitution of common sense, people have to use it” Shekarau had earlier said Nigeria must allow President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor to come from the southern part, noting that since President Buhari is from the North “common sense tells one that we should look at the other side”.
