‎A former Governor of Borno State, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff has said northern leaders had agreed to give a southerner two terms untill 2031.

‎In his words:

‎”We, the leaders in the north had an agreement to give two terms until 2031, to southerners to produce president and we don’t deviate from agreement.
‎Even if Tinubu didn’t contest to be reelected , the north will still honour the agreement by allowing a southerner who will spend just one term. But take it from me, Tinubu will handover to a northerner in 2031 ~ Sen. Ali Modu Sheriff

‎Political jobbers who populated the ADC are merely throwing up names of big politicians from the north as potential decamped to their fold to deceive people of a popularity they don’t have.

Even in Adamawa where Atiku is from, it’s a state under PDP today and I don’t see Atiku defeating Fintiri, afterall, the governor defeated Atiku’s candidate, Aisha Binani in 2023 and do you think Atiku’s ADC will defeat a Bala Mohammed in Bauchi State, Bala defeated Atoku’s sponsored candidate, Saidw Abubakar in 2023 ~ Ali Modu Sheriff.”
