Northern youths have cautioned politicians in the region to respect the gentleman agreement on the rotation of power, warning against efforts to deviate from the planned presidency arrangement. Sama Musa, the National Chairman of the Northern Youth Frontier, stated that discussions are underway with political figures and stakeholders across the North in preparation for the 2031 election.
He emphasized that the North is ready and willing to wait until 2031 for the next presidential term, underscoring the region's steadfast political acumen and its role as a foundational component of the nation.
The youths accused politicians from the region of attempting to sow discord among patriotic citizens to serve their personal political interests. They stressed that the presidency is rotated among regions, not individuals, and that elected candidates should not be seen as representing the entirety of the North. Musa reiterated that 2031 remains the designated turn for Northern Nigeria as a collective region, cautioning against any individual's personal ambition undermining the unity and political balance of the nation.
The statement emphasized that power rotation in Nigeria is structured to alternate between the North and the South, not personal ambitions.
