Bodejo in an interview with The Sun averred that northerners manage the country
better than their counterparts in the south.
In his words:
“Even though Nigeria is one, we are not going to support a southerner as
president. A president from the north is better because northerners are better
managers of the nation than southerners,” he said.
“The north has demonstrated that there is no difference among them in the
region. They don’t show this is Fulani, this is Hausa, and this is this and
that, unlike in the south. Northern people have managed the country better than
southerners.
“If your enemy asks you to join him to scatter your father’s house, can you
support him to break your father’s house? You shouldn’t do that. But if he
overshadows you and you help him to accomplish that, you would cry later.
“It will be very difficult for a southerner to manage Nigeria the way a
northerner would. The northerners that are ruling or governing were trained by
our leaders that ruled the country before.”
