Popular Nigerian Comedian, Okey Bakassi, has recommended a regional government ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
He suggested that the three leading candidates Atiku Abubakar (PDP), Bola Tinubu (APC), and Peter Obi (Labour Party) should be allowed to govern two geopolitical zones each out of Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones.
This comes as there have been growing calls for a return to the 1963 era premised on regionalism.

Reacting to a post, Okey Bakassi wrote on his Facebook handle;
“I saw this post and it actually got me wishing….since we have six geopolitical zones: Give Atiku NE & NW, Give Tinubu SW & NC and Give Obi SE & SS… Split the National budget into 3 equal parts and allow them head these regions for 4yrs after which we can evaluate progress and conduct a Presidential election if necessary. #realitycheck #2023isimportant #getyourpvc.”
Meanwhile, Prophet Ezenwa George aka ‘Ritabbi’ has predicted that former Anambra Governor, Peter Obi, will “emerge as president of Nigeria”.
The founder and General Overseer of Christ As of Old Ministry disclosed this in a video clip obtained by Quest Times on Sunday.
