Northern-based groups under the umbrella of Arewa Coalition for Rotational Presidency have urged Northern presidential aspirants especially from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to step down from their political ambition to support rotation of power to the southern region.

This was disclosed in statement jointly signed by the chairman, Abdullahi Biu and the secretary, Hamza Malumfashi, stating that this is the solution to the brewing political tension in the country.

The statement further read, “The current brewing political tension stirred by the call for power shift to the south by Southern Governors and groups can only be doused, when all Stakeholders from the North, Governors and political parties agree to the Presidency.

“In the interest of peace; equity and Justice, more so, that the north has been in power for eight years now, the idea of north even contesting for the highly exalted position of the President should be immediately jettisoned.

“All those pick nomination forms, especially from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) should step down if there are true democrats.

“As a group of democrats from the 19 Northern states, we strongly believe in the principle of equity and fairness as a panacea for peace; progress and, thus our resolve support rotation of power to our brothers in the southern region.

“It is against this background that we are advising all the political parties, especially the two major parties, APC and PDP to field only southern candidates,” the statement said. (Daily Independent)
