2027: Zoning won’t save Nigeria, Hayatudeen warns

Mohammed Hayatudeen, a presidential aspirant from the African Democratic Congress, stated that the ongoing debate over zoning is distracting from urgent challenges facing Nigeria, such as worsening insecurity and massive unemployment. He emphasized that the security crisis is linked to long-standing economic failures, with about 110 million Nigerians living below the poverty line. Hayatudeen insisted on the need for leadership based on competence and empathy rather than geographical considerations.
