Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, is seeking to defect…

The south should govern till 2031, then power can then shift back to the North. The Labor Party is likely to field Peter Obi again. Rabiu Kwankwaso will either run for President again under NNPP and win only Kano again or back President Bola Tinubu for President in…
