The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has zoned its 2027 presidential ticket to the South while maintaining the current National Working Committee (NWC) zoning arrangement for its November elective convention.
This decision was reached at the 102nd National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party held in Abuja on Monday.
Briefing journalists after the meeting, PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, explained that the resolution followed the submission of a report by the Zoning Committee, chaired by Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri.
He noted that the NEC also expressed satisfaction with preparations for the November convention.
Ologunagba stated, “NEC recommended that the North and South should retain their current NWC positions.
“NEC also resolved that since the National Chairman of the party is zoned to the North, the PDP 2027 Presidential ticket is hereby zoned to the South.”
