Gov Oluwarotimi Akeredolu

Ondo state governor and Chairman of the Southern Governors’ Forum, Hon Rotimi Akeredolu has called on the All Progressives Congress, APC, to zone its presidential ticket to the southern region of the country to win the 2023 elections.

According to Akeredolu, the APC must not consider the unwritten north-south rotation agreement in its presidential primaries.

On Wednesday evening, Akeredolu, who also serves as Chairman of the Southwest Governors’ Forum, was named Chairman of Security and Compliance for the party’s special convention.

On Thursday, the Governor reiterated his colleagues in the Southern Nigeria Governors’ Forum’s position that power should come to the south in a short message posted on his personal Facebook page.

He also stated that the party must work hard to keep power by rotating the presidency to the south.

The APC, according to Akeredolu, must be prepared to rotate power, adding that it must come to the south.
