Tinubu will be in Aso Rock till 2031, Akume tells Atiku, others

By Victor Akan

Northern political bigwigs warming up to contest the 2027 presidential election have been advised to shelve their ambition and wait till 2031 when President Bola Ahmed Tinubu would have completed his second term.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, gave the advice on Sunday while featuring on a TVC programme on politics.

He specifically asked former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to perish the thought of taking over the presidential villa in 2027, saying if God wanted him to be president, he could win an election at the age of 90.

Akume, a former governor of Benue State, posited that it was still the turn of the South to produce a president in 2027.

According to him, President Tinubu had not lost goodwill among Nigerians as a result of tax reform bills and other strategic economic decisions taken within the last 17 months of his administration, and expressed optimism that the president would run Nigeria for 8 years.

The SGF defended the tax reform bills as well-envisioned proposed legislations that would help the country when passed by the National Assembly.

“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,” Akume said.

On the tax reform bills, he enjoined Nigerians to allow the bills to scale through the required legislative processes.
