Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Fintiri said zoning would not solve Nigeria’s many problems.
He said the country rather needs a credible leader irrespective of tribe and religion to turn it around.
Fintiri, who is also the Chairman of the PDP National Convention Organising Committee, spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday.
He said PDP having learnt a lesson from its past mistakes has now repositioned itself to take over power from the ruling APC and improve the lives of Nigerians.
“The problem of Nigeria is not about zoning, it is for us to look for a credible candidate. Anywhere that person comes from, irrespective of his religion or tribe,” Fintiri said.
“What you and I are after today is to have a good leader that will be able to deliver on our economy, security that will impact on human development, deploy the kind of infrastructure that we need.”
Speaking on his relationship with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, he said “I am the supporter of everybody”, adding that the former Vice President is a “leader to everybody in the PDP, he is our last presidential candidate and if given the opportunity again, I will support him.”
