If Zoning is not done, there will be no Nigeria – Edwin Clark

A chieftain of the People’s Democratic party PDP, Edwin Clark has thrown his weight behind the issue of zoning the Presidency to the South-East. He said if Zoning is not done, the country will cease to exist

He said this while speaking during an interview on Arise TV on Tuesday.
According to him, there is no monopoly of leadership as no one will remain in the country as a second class citizen

He said, “My idea of zoning the Presidency to the South-East is well-known. No Nigerian will like to live in a country where certain people believe that they have the only right to lead.

“The APC believes the 12 million votes by President Muhammadu Buhari might be eroded if it is zoned to the South. The PDP is also considering zoning to the North. This is unfair.

“Nigeria stood on three legs, and it has never been steady since one of the legs was destroyed during the Civil War. If zoning which will heal the wounds is not done, there will be no Nigeria. Nobody will remain in this country as a second class citizen.

“The North believes their population can be used to oppress other Nigerians. This is not acceptable. The era of that has gone. There are many good Northerners but the Fulani-oriented ones want to dominate everywhere.”
