This friction arises from certain reasons,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former speaker also described the president as \u201chighly opinionated\u201d noting that he had created an evident\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD2\">divide<\/span>between the north and the south while\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD10\">presumably<\/span>\u00a0favouring one side.<\/p>\n<p>Na\u2019Abba also stated that the president works alone and does not carry out due consultation regarding his policies, rather he believes its a one man show.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cYou cannot run a country in a manner that suggests you are highly opinionated. And this opinionation has nothing to do with the people. If it has to do with the people and their welfare, and their feelings \u2014 I think it\u2019s ok.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople in the south have this\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD9\">perception<\/span>that he is a tribalist\u2026 he can\u2019t even manage the country. Someone told me that this man can\u2019t even manage his home, how can he manage a country?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis idea of zoning, no matter how many times a president comes from a particular zone, it will never satisfy anybody. For example, within the north today, the idea of\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD5\">many people<\/span>\u00a0that the presidency must shift to another region is not a welcome idea because the feeling of\u00a0many people\u00a0is that the years of this president is a waste. They\u2019ve not\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD3\">gained<\/span>\u00a0anything from it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, why should anybody even talk to them about zoning? When they believe they have the\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD8\">numerical<\/span>\u00a0strength to elect another person.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">\u201cNo consultation. Since he suggests that, he works alone. We become president or whatever not because we have the\u00a0<span id=\"m_-2636703709731982445IL_AD6\">monopoly<\/span>\u00a0of wisdom.
