A former Edo State governorship aspirant is calling for competence to be the key factor in choosing Nigeria's next president. Kenneth Imasuagbon, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, wants voters to prioritize competence over other considerations. He believes this approach is necessary for the country's next presidential election in 2027.

Imasuagbon notes that the principle of rotational presidency is not enshrined in the Constitution. He is urging voters to support a candidate based on their ability to lead, rather than their place of origin or other factors.

Further details on Imasuagbon's views are available from the source publication, The Punch.
