National president of the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), Shettima Yerima, has said the South East region of the country is not prepared to produce a president in 2023.
Speaking in an interview, Yerima said the unpreparedness of the South East region for the presidency is obvious from the fact that the region has allowed its people to go about threatening the unity of Nigeria.
He said the South East zone cannot aspire to produce the president while threatening the peace of the country by calling for the disintegration of Nigeria.
“You cannot continue to be threatening the unity of this country because time has come that you cannot threaten people because you want power, you need to lobby.
“You cannot look us in the face and abuse the sensibility of all Nigerians and undermine the government and now say because they are scared of you; this is primitive, who is afraid of you?” he said. Yerima urged the region to call its people to order and see the way they can also participate politically without threatening the unity of the country.
He said that was the only way the region can get the presidency on a platter of gold.
