Chief Charles Idahosa, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo state on Wednesday said he will support a northern candidate for Presidency after the completion of President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure in 2023.

Speaking in an interview with Daily Independent in Benin, Idahosa said there is a need for the North to complete the six years of the late Umaru Musa Yar’Adua administration which was completed by former president Goodluck Jonathan following Yar’Adua’s demise.

He blamed former President Olusegun Obasanjo whom he accused of deliberately presenting an ailing Yar’Adua and a weak Vice- President in Jonathan so that he can indirectly rule Nigeria for a third term.

“I see a situation in this country whereby the North will not let go of power by 2023. The North will still go for the presidency and if that happens, I am going to support a Northern president after Buhari’s eight years”.

“We Southerners there is something funny about us. We think we know too much than the Northerners but the Northerners are more politically sophisticated than us”.
