Former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has congratulated the former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar on his emergence as Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Fani-Kayode who described Atiku’s election as “justice”, stressed that the zone has not produced a democratically elected President for 62 years.
He however, called on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to also field a northerner if the party must win election.
Fani-Kayode who acknowledged that Atiku is a formidable candidate, stated that a hard fight lies ahead.
The former Aviation Minister who stated this via his twitter handle said:
‘Congratulations to @atiku.
“Not only is he a formidable candidate but he comes from a zone that has not produced a democratically-elected President for 62 years. This is justice.
@OfficialAPCNg MUST field a NORTHERNER if we want to win.
Whichever way, a hard fight lies ahead.
