Momodu said:
"Let me warn, whenever in the past we had two strong southern candidates, they lost to the North.
"We did it in 1979 when we had Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, the scenario repeated itself in 1983. The south must learn about politics and politicking. It is not about sentiments."
When asked if it was fair for power to shift from a Fulani man to another Fulani, Momodu said politics is a game of numbers, not sentiments.
He said there is a need for politics to be conducted properly as it should be, or the party will risk losing over and over again.
Momodu said for a candidate to emerge victorious, the person must be able to reach out to everybody before victory can be ascertained.
He said:
"Democracy is not always about fairness. You and I can cry from now till kingdom come, until we learn to conduct politics properly, we will continue to lose."
