Katsina State governor, Aminu Masari has made a revelation.

He said: “Northern Governors supported the presidential ambition of President-elect Bola Tinubu because of respect for zoning.”

“God had saved us from shame during the last general elections where the APC recorded huge successes.”

“The current administration would have been regarded as a failure had the party lost the presidential poll.”

“God helped President Muhammad Buhari to defend his integrity, because if we had failed in the election, he would be the first to be blamed.”

“My colleagues and I have foresight and saw the attempts to tarnish the Nigerian leader’s image.”

“Though political parties believe in zoning, some people in the APC wanted to ignore it ahead of 2023, but we rejected.”

“The lack of respect for zoning formula in some parties brought them into the crises they face.”

“Northerners succeeded in earning the respect of the people because once we said yes, it’s always yes.”
