You don\u2019t announce in advance where your presidential candidate will come from and in any case, there must be criteria for presidential aspiration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAny Nigerian from any part of the country can aspire from any party, but the issue is when you localize it to a particular party, which party will actually want to win and form the next government and will look out for the most popular candidate. Zoning is not the answer\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, political parties will always look for who can win election to form the next government which may determine where to zone presidency.<\/p>\n<p>On the party congresses, which held recently, he said the exercise credible enough to sustain unity of the party at the grassroot, stressing that few disagreements as a result of the congress would be contained.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator representing Bauchi North Senatorial District, Adamu Muhammad Bulkachuwa, said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) may not be committed to zoning presidency to the South West, Nigeria.
