Arewa Consultative Forum Advises Igbo To Lobby Other Regions For 2023 Presidency

Chairman of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), Chief Audu Ogbeh, has urged the South-East leaders and stakeholders to lobby if they want to produce the nation's next President in 2023.

The former Agriculture Minister said the South-East would not get the presidency if they resort to threats and blackmail.

Speaking to reporters in Kaduna, the ACF Chairman suggested that political parties should also be left with the zoning of the presidency.

Chief Ogbeh noted that the management of political parties had become low, pointing out that parties should be responsible for zoning the presidency.

He admonished the Igbos that democracy encourages political power-seekers to be friendly and reach out widely to stakeholders across the country in order to win their respective support.

The WHO and vaccine charity, GAVI run an international dose-sharing programme with rich countries but with the new variant, supplies to poor nations could reduce.

O'Brien said and I quote, "As we head into whatever the Omicron situation is going to be, there is risk that the global supply is again going to revert to high-income countries hoarding vaccines" as they seek to protect their ability to inoculate their citizens''.

Senior special assistant to the president on National Assembly Matters, Honourable Umar El-Yakub, stated that the communication between the president and the National Assembly is not a secret affair, adding that such communication would have been read on the floor of the parliament.

According to the Presidential aide, "The long and short of it is that there has never been any communication of such; there is nothing like that. If there is any communication, it will be disclosed publicly at the National Assembly.

"We all need to be more responsible; we don't need to unnecessarily overheat the polity. What I can tell you is that if you are doing your calculations right, you know that the president constitutionally has 30 days to sign the bill. The bill was transmitted on the 19th November so the president has 10 more days," added E-Yakub.
