Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has said he is not aspiring for any higher political position in 2023.
There have been rumours that the governor is eyeing the
number two position in the country.
But speaking at the 19th Daily Trust Dialogue in Abuja on
Thursday, Zulum said becoming the governor of Borno was not something he
planned.
“We are now coming closer to the 2023 general elections but
for me, it’s not important, I’m not interested in any position. I never planned
to be the governor of Borno State and I’m not willing to aspire for any higher
position but as a Muslim, you should always pray for the best,” he said.
He advised people to look into the possibility of selecting
good leaders rather than the elections itself.
“We have to look into the possibility of selecting good
leaders, whether we like it or not. How? That remains the very big question;
whether in PDP, whether in APC, I think we need to see how we can get good
leaders.”
