Sokoto State Governor and presidential aspirant on the platform of the People Democratic Party, Aminu Tambuwal, has said that Nigerians must not experiment with someone who does not understand the intricacies of governance.
This comes after he promised to give special recognition to women in his presidency.
Tambuwal, who spoke with a forum of former deputy governors in the PDP on Thursday evening in Abuja lamented that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), despite his background as former minister and former Head of State, had failed to unite the country along ethnic and religious lines.
This, he said, necessitates the election of a unifying leader in 2023.
He said, “This is a time that Nigerians must not experiment with someone who does not understand democratic governance.
“It is important that we are doing this exercise of selecting who is going to be the standard flag bearer of our party, we must deliberately seek out someone that understands this country, someone who has been tested in democratic governance, appreciating how to run a federal government.”
