Demola Olarenwaju, the Special Assistant on Digital Media Strategy to Atiku Abubakar, the former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has named former President Goodluck Jonathan as the only southerner who can successfully run against President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
He, however, pointed out that replacing Tinubu with another southerner in 2027 won’t fly.
Posting on X, Olarenwaju wrote: “The only Southerner that can run successfully against Tinubu in 2027 and carry northern votes is Goodluck Jonathan, who has just one more term to serve.
Replacing Tinubu after four years with another Southerner who will likely serve eight years won’t fly, ethnic sentiments.
“Nigerians are at a point in mass societal thought where they do not believe anyone in Aso Rock can make an actual difference to their lives and they cling only to the bragging rights of “the President is from my place” than any other imagined reality.”
Jonathan did only one term in office and was removed after losing the 2015 presidential election to former President Muhammadu Buhari.
