<p><strong>As the 2023 elections approach, Deji Adeyanju, a former Youth Leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Monday asked presidential aspirants of South-West extraction to step down from the race.</strong></p>
<p>According to Adeyanju, the failure of Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC); Vice-President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo; and other South-West aspirants, to withdraw from the presidential race will mean the North will retain power in 2023.</p>
<p>“Tinubu, Osinbajo and other South West candidates should step down from the race now, if not; the North will retain power. Dear greedy South West people, let South East have it,” Adeyanju wrote on his known Twitter handle.</p>
<p>There have been calls from South-east leaders that the region should be allowed to produce a president for the first time in 2023.</p>
<p>Some leaders of the region have argued that the emergence of a Nigerian president from the South-east would end the Biafra agitation and the insecurity in the region.</p>
<p>Both the ruling APC and the opposition PDP, the two dominant political parties in Nigeria, have been under pressure to pick their presidential candidates from the South-east.</p>
