The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume has stated that if it is the will of God for the former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar to become the President of Nigeria, he can get it even at the age of 90 years.
This statement was contained in a report that was published by PUNCH on Sunday.
In the report that surfaced online, George Akume stated that those eyeing the presidency from the North in 2027 should look beyond that year.
He said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should be allowed to have a second term.
George Akume was quoted as saying that;
“President Tinubu, as a Southerner, should be allowed to have a second term. Meaning that those eyeing the presidency from the North in 2027 should look beyond that year by waiting till 2031. If it is the will of God for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to be President of Nigeria, even at the age of 90 years, he can get it, but he and other Northerners, eyeing the office now, should look beyond 2027″.
