Former Borno State Governor Kashim Shettima has reiterated his call for a power shift to southern Nigeria in 2023.
Shettima spoke in Abuja on Friday during the public presentation of a book titled “Standing for the Truth with Courage”
“I believe in equity, justice and fairness. After power has resided in the North for eight years, there is need for a power shift in the South,” he said.
Shettima said that there was need for the country to inculcate the culture of writing books to enhance the academic performance of students.
“We are going through difficult times in our country, economic and security but let us recognise that the whole world is going through the same challenge.
“Nigeria is part of the world. But the leadership under which we operate shows we shall indeed overcome all these. If we keep united, keep building, we cannot be ignored by any other country in the world.
“I am convinced that under the leadership of President Buhari, there is going to be a better future. He belongs to all Nigerians,” he said.
