A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa,(SAN), has lauded the decision of the Northern governors elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) recommending zoning of the party’s presidential ticket to the South.
In a statement he titled “APC on the Path of History,” Adegboruwa said he received the governors’ decision with joy and enthusiasm.
According to him, that was the path to tread by the party.
He said Section 14(3) of the nation’s constitution stipulated equal distribution of power amongst all the sections of the country.
Being the party in power, the decision of APC governors has rekindled the quest for unity amongst the contending forces in Nigeria, he noted.
He, however, slammed the main opposition Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), which he said was “enmeshed in a dance of death by going against its own constitution on power rotation”.
He appealed to the APC to conduct a transparent primary and ensure its party members vote for its candidate in the next year’s presidential election.
Meanwhile, as of the time of filing this report, the Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, a northern aspirant for the president, is yet to step down.
