However, the PDP has resolved the issue in an ambigous manner, saying Dr. GoodLick Jonathan can contest the next year presidential elections on the platform of the party under the auspices of the Joint Ticket he shared with Yar'dua in the last elections. This implies that Goodluck Jonathan will complete the eight year tenure slated for the north( Yar'dua) after the south reigns. However, those who came up with this did not foresee what comes next after 2011.
If Jonathan eventually contest and wins the election, hence complete Yar'dua's tenure, what is the stake of the North comes 2015. To be frank, the North will lose out considering the fact that Dr. Goodluck Jonathan will be eligible to contest on HIS OWN platform, and stand a chnace of ruling this country for anoda eight years from 2015. Those clamouring for zoning should stop this nonsense and allow the masses to exercise thier franchise and vote for whosoever they want. Likewise, i strongly hope power players would wait for thier turn and allow Jonathan a free ride to ASO ROCK, till 2015 or 2019, or else, lets wait and see
