Date:

From: Femi Oyelola, Kaduna

Arewa Youth Consultative Forum( AYFC ) has called on Ohanaeze and nation’s stakeholders to stick to “merit” of any Presidential candidate as against his ethno-regional or religious leanings.
The President of AYFC Alhaji Yerima Shettima stated this in a statement made available to media in kaduna yesterday.
AYCF President was responding to press conference by Ohaneaze that rejected the position of Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State that rotational Presidency cannot be found anywhere in the Nigerian Constitution.
The group described as laughable the claim by Ohanaeze that Governor Yahaya Bello was still a student when Nigerians like the late Dr. Abubakar Rimi, Solomon Lar and others advised that power rotation should be adopted.
