\n
Former lawmaker, Senator Daniel Bwala, has claimed that Mr Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the 2023 election, only stands the chance to become Nigerian president from 2039.<\/p>\n
Bwala said President Bola Tinubu will have to finish his two terms, with power returning to the north for another eight years.<\/p>\n
The former lawmaker, in a post on his X handle on Monday, said power will only return to the south in 2039.<\/p>\n
He wrote: \u201c@PeterObi only stands the chance to be Nigerias president from 2039 when he will clock 79, or above 79 years. By then his message would no longer be \u201cvote me because I am the younger of the candidates\u201d but it will be \u201cvote me because age doesn\u2019t matter but capacity\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe reason is @officialABAT will finish his two terms, then power would come to the north for another 8 years, before it goes to the south. The e-rodents who keep shouting \u201cwe are the youth\u201d by then would be saying \u201cwe are the elders\u201d. Blessed week ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
