Chairmanship: PDP Northern leaders ask delegates to vote for S/West aspirants only

The Northern elders and leaders forum of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has urged delegates to vote for only chairmanship aspirants from the South West region during the December 9 national convention in Abuja.



The forum disclosed this in a communique issued at the end of its meeting held in Abuja on Thursday night.
According to the communique, the forum received reports from the three geo-political zones of the region, regarding the micro-zoning of positions zoned to them, in line with the spirit of rotation.
The forum said it resolved that capable and competent aspirants should be identified and supported
“After extensive deliberations, it was resolved that, in the spirit of fairness, equity, carrying every part of the country along, giving every geo-political zone a sense of participation and inclusion in the affairs of the PDP, we strongly support the quest of the Southwest geo-political zone to produce the next National Chairman of the party. In line with our resolve to rebuild and reposition the PDP, we urge delegates from all the Northern States to abide by this decision and vote for only aspirants from the Southwest geo-political zone in the forthcoming national convention, in the best interest of the party. This is without prejudice to the right of aspirants from other geo-political zones to contest,” the communique reads.


The communique signed by former governor Ibrahim Shekarau and former Speaker, Benue State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Margaret Icheen, also called on members of the party to accord the National Caretaker Committee (NCC) the required support to conduct a credible, transparent, free and fair convention.
Other notable stakeholder at the meeting include former governors of the party from the region- Sen. Jonah Jang, Muazu Babangida Aliyu, , Gabriel Suswam, Ahmadu Fintiri; former Senate President, Sen. David Mark, Sen. Ibrahim Mantu, Amb. Aminu Wali, Dr. Ahmadu Ali, Prof. Jerry Gana, Mallam Adamu Maina Waziri.
Others were Comrade Abba Moro, Barr. Kabiru Turaki, Sen. Nenadi Usman, Sen. Solomon Ewuga, Rt. Hon. Margaret Icheen, Col. Bala Mande (Rtd), Sen. Tunde Ogbeha, Haj. Inna Ciroma, Mukhtar Shagari, Haj. Zainab Maina, Alh. Shehu Musa Gabam, Prof. Abubakar Suleiman, Hon. Laurencia L. Mallam, Hon. Bello Mutawalle, Dr. Emmanuel Agbo, Princess Rabi Ibrahim, Dr. Baraka Umar, Hon.

I just dey watch Tonyebacarnista and TemiTemi they seems not to understand the political calculation of our nation

How will a party that wants to win neglect or dare a bloc vote region


Aside Northwest Southwest is the next

PDP and Gej tried it

They all see the result

If it is zoned to south west, then Gbenga Daniel will be a good choice.
If it is not zoned, then uche secondus may emerge as the chairman.

It is the electorates that will vote in the upcoming convention.
After that, we will know the winner

We don vex. Infact naija does not need president anymore

sarrki:

south west has never been a bloc vote region.
Its votes are always divided.
Check history

All na format...just in a bid to get the South West support the North to win in 2019.
Who zoning epp?

I think the election will be rigged in favour of Uche Secondus. That is almost a foregone conclusion.

Amarabae:

It is the electorates that will vote in the upcoming convention.
After that, we will know the winner

If the masses will vote please look at our geographic zone

Please endeavour to do random sampling at least of 50 people across rank and file among the masses

Out of the 6 region you will know who wins the next election

Not online voting can give you a clear figure

Even as baba is leading online now

Please endeavor to do it

Its not a hidden stuff

I can only imagine Secondus having nightmares upon seeing this communique.

Supported

Yorubas winning on all fronts..

PDP chairmanship belongs to SW #Fact

Hausas/Fulanis are reasonable people with good political skills unlike some greedy ones whose votes don't count in Nigeria.. mere 5% people.
It's what they'll do they have passed across. Let's see how Dopkesi from Edo (SS) or Uche from wherever will win.

Any pig that doesn't like this news should drink sniper.

..hmmm which means the veep job goes east or south. Should go east in all fairness. Eastern Nigeria has been faithful to the PDP and has suffered a lot of persecution for it. And the south is just ex-presidency.

Hmmm

Gbenga Daniel all the way

Wherever it goes doesn't count.

North + SE (secessionists) against North + SW ticket in APC . APC will win with a wide margin.

PDP is dead and buried but still I'm happy a Yoruba will emerge their national chairman. Means a lot in politics.
