The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has said the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, will get little or no vote in the North come 2023.
National President of AYCF, Yerima Shettima, stated this while naming presidential candidates who would divide the votes in the North.
Shettima said the votes from the North would be divided between the presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
Speaking with Daily Post, Shettima said Obi’s supporters have not done enough work in the Northern geo-political zone to get votes.
According to Shettima: “The vote of the North will be divided between Tinubu, Atiku, and Kwankwaso. Peter Obi will get little or nothing in the North; this is not because he is an Igbo man but because so many factors are involved.
“Not because he lacks the competence, but his lieutenants have not done enough work in the Northern part of the country,” he added.
Shettima also stressed that the 2023 polls will hold, warning that any attempt to undermine the elections would be resisted.
