The Chairman of Arise News Television and Publisher of ThisDay newspapers, Chief Nduka Obaigbena, has said that nobody in Nigeria can predict who will succeed the President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.
Obaigbena spoke in Abuja on Saturday during the inauguration of the new leadership of the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON).
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Multichoice Nigeria, Mr John Ugbe, had emerged as new Chairman at the 75th General Assembly and 20th Annual General Meeting of BON.
Speaking on what will happen in 2023, Obaigbena stated that the ideologies of the older and the younger generations are now clashing.
He said, “Nigeria is in a momentous time, a time of great change that even on this table, the powerhouse in Kano (Ganduje), none of them can tell you whom the next president would be.
“At this time in Nigeria, there is nobody who can predict 2023. Therefore, these are times of momentous change, when we have ideas of some of those who founded Nigeria in the 60s clashing with the new ideas of the millennials who Femi (Adesina) will not like to hear at times.
“However, we are here to welcome the new leadership of BON, John Ugbeh and his colleagues. I believe they are very capable to guide Nigeria through this change. I salute them all.”
