Katsina State Governor, Aminu Bello Masari, has said he supports power shift to the South because it will strengthen and consolidate the federation.

The clarification followed the Daily Trust report where the governor was erroneously reported as saying it will help consolidate the nation’s confederation system.

The Director-General (Media) to the governor, Abdu Labaran Malumfashi, in a statement clarified that the governor never spoke in support of confederation during his interaction with journalists.

The statement quoted Masari as saying during the media chat, “I still believe as a principle not as a law that until such a time when we have a stable politics, I think rotation or shifting power from time to time will help to consolidate our federation. I support it. So, I still maintain my stand.”
