Speaking over the weekend, Kwande urged Northerners to strive towards developing the region by voting for people who are pro-development and not those who are self-centered.

However, Fani-Kayode lamented that the alleged cowardice of Southern leaders gave Kwande the basis to make such comments.

In a tweet, the former Minister wrote: “In 2023 people from the northern part of the country will vote for a presidential candidate from that region irrespective of the party – Musa Liman, Acting Chairman of ACF.

“If not for the cowardice of most southern leaders you would not have the nerve to speak like this
