Chief Mbazulike Amechi, the first Republic Aviation Minister, has warned that any attempt by the North to retain power in 2023 would trigger more serious conflict capable of affecting the existence of Nigeria badly.
Amaechi said that the country may explode if the two leading political parties decide to field candidates from the North.
He claimed being unaware that some people in the North still believe in the Uthman Danfodio mandate which implies, the region will continue to rule the country.
The for Aviation Minister insisted that in order to maintain peace and security in the country, the North must not continue to hold unto power but shift to other regions that have never tasted the Presidential seat.
He stressed there is a new thinking in the North that believes that the North should not just keep power to themselves.
“If that is the case, that the North wants to keep power in 2023, it might lead to a more serious case in the country and it will affect our continued existence as a nation,” he said, according to Sun.
“If the two parties provide northern candidates, then the two parties in their vision have created a situation that would explode and when it explodes, nobody should be blamed, except the people who have created the situation," he warned. -NewsDirect
