Reacting to the development, Fani-Kayode, who congratulated Atiku after emerging the PDP presidential flagbearer on Saturday, said the APC must field a northerner if they must defeat the former Vice President.

He wrote on Twitter, “Congratulations to @atiku. Not only is he a formidable candidate but he comes from a zone that has not produced a democratically-elected President for 62 years. This is justice.

“@OfficialAPCNg MUST field a NORTHERNER if we want to win. Whichever way, a hard fight lies ahead.”
