Presidency not yet S’East’s turn in 2027 – Umahi

Umahi

Minister of Works, David Umahi, has said that the South-East zone must exercise patience in its quest for Nigeria’s presidency, declaring that it is not yet its turn to produce the country’s next leader.

Umahi stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday in Abuja.

He emphasised the need for political fairness and continuity in 2027, referencing the good works that President Bola Tinubu had been doing since his assumption of office in 2023.

“No, it is not our time; it is not the time of South-East yet. We, the 17 Southern governors, went to Asaba before 2023, and we went to say, listen, it doesn’t matter the political party, but the next president should come from the South. Punch
