When asked if the party was making moves to bring back former President Goodluck Jonathan following the clamour for an eastern presidency, Mr Secondus said that the decision could only be made after the submission of election appraisal committee’s report.

“Everyone will have that opportunity but in clear terms, we have not taken any decision to give anybody ticket for now.

After the general election, the party setted up a panel to study and appraise our performance and make recommendations. Thecommittee is chaired by the Governor of Bauchi state, Alhaji Bala Mohammed work is still in progress. Same thing was done when we lost previous general election when we setted up Sen. Ike Ekweremadu committee to look into why we lost. It was from that report that the party took action towards 2019. The same accord, we must study our last outing before looking ahead. We can’t be talking of zoning when we have not accertain how we performed in the last election.”

“Moreover, the state of the nation today is such that politics or anything concerning 2023 of three years away should take back stage,” he concluded.
