Governor Kayode Fayemi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ekiti governor who seems to have a very small list of detractors naturally endears himself to the hearts of those who still believe in the leadership. As the chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF), Fayemi is in a clique of influential governors who can pull massives strings when it comes to the presidency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Babatunde Raji Fashola<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loved more as a technocrat who evidentially knows his onions than as a politician, the minister of works and housing often command rapped attention whenever he speaks. Countless Lagosians are of the view that if this former governor gets the chance to become president, Nigeria will experience more of the swift positive changes Lagos state witnessed under him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Governor Dave Umahi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if the Ebonyi governor may not be extremely popular because of insecurity challenges characterised by IPOB\/ESN members&#8217; activities in the state, his recent defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC) draws him nearer to power at the centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It may not be a mere thing of chance that Umahi&#8217;s defection to the ruling party coincides with growing agitations for an Igbo presidency from the southeast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Send your news stories to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:dannyboy744@gmail.com\">dannyboy744@gmail.com<\/a>\u00a0and via WhatsApp on +233 266777777<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The question many Nigerians ask is who will succeed President&nbsp;Muhammadu Buhari&nbsp;in 2023.
