Chief Executive Officer, Institute of Human Virology of Nigeria, Dr Patrick Dakum, said in Abuja on Sunday that Nigeria is not ripe to jettison rotational presidency. Dakum told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that while getting the most qualified Nigerians as president was important, rotational presidency in 2023 would foster unity. He said each region of the country had qualified Nigerians to rule the nation. “My view about rotational presidency is that we are not ripe enough to jettison the system. “Let us continue that gentlemanly agreement until we are ripe enough to add skills and other credentials,’’ he stressed.
