That Amaechi may not end up a tragic hero, By Majeed Dahiru

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has selected former vice president Atiku Abubakar as its presidential candidate, with Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi from the south as his running mate, marking a significant political move. This comes as a surprise since Amaechi, a prominent figure from the south, has previously faced political challenges. This partnership could reshape the political landscape in Nigeria, especially given the regional dynamics at play. The implications of this alliance extend beyond the immediate election, potentially influencing future political alliances and strategies in the country.
