  • Tips Preferred Candidate

Count down to the general elections, speculations are rife that the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), may have endorsed its preferred candidate yet to be disclosed as the group declared that the naira redesign would not put to check the hydra headed problem of election rigging in Nigeria.

Though, the Convener of NEF and former Vice Chancellor of the Ahmedu Bello University Zaria (ABU) in Kaduna State, Professor Ango Abdullahi in an interview with News men, disclosed that the group was yet to reach amicable truce in that regard.

But the renowned Scholar appears to make a detour when he said that NEF was in a crucial meeting with Ohanaeze.

His words:” In a meeting we had some weeks ago, we chose our preferred candidate. We have reached that point but I won’t tell you who the person is for now.

“NEF is still discussing with other stakeholders from other parts of the country who are interested in the elections. Even today, we are having a meeting with the representatives of the Ohanaeze in Abuja.

“Yes, representatives of NEF and Ohanaeze are meeting right now. We do not know the outcome of of their discussions yet.

When they are ready to tell us what they agreed on, we will let you know,” Angi Abdullahi Said with a tone of finality.
