Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State says it will be out of place for President Goodluck Jonathan to seek re-election in 2015,because he will be ineligible to so contest.
The governor, in an interview in Abuja,argued that President Jonathan,having served first as acting President and now spending a fresh four year term,ought not to seek re-election.
He said that the generality of Nigerians would have kicked against a similar move by any other person.
He said: “ Of course to us, their (Umaru Yar’Adua/Jonathan) term started in 2007. He was two years vice president; he was two years president. 2011 to 2015 will be four years, so if you add the two, whether you want to say eight years or six years, depends on who is doing the arithmetic.
