2019: Tension In PDP Over Moves To Violate Zoning-daily Trust by dulaman(op): 10:28am On Mar 30, 2016
The Board of Trustees (BoT)‎ of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned against any move to jettison the zoning of the party’s 2019 presidential ‎ticket to the North.
The BoT acting chairman, Senator Walid Jibrin, who addressed newsmen yesterday in Abuja, said anyone who tried to reverse the position, which had already been approved by the National Executive Committee (NEC) would ever remain an “enemy to the north” and a “killer” of the PDP.
Senator Walid also said that the party’s national chairman, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, must vacate office alongside other members of the National Working Committee (NWC) in May as approved by the various organs of the PDP.
The NEC, which is the highest decision-making body of the party, had asked the Sheriff-led NWC to constitute convention, financial, zoning and ‎reconciliation committees ahead of the May 21 national convention of the party to be held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, an action which has not been taken.
The acting BoT chairman said the recent courtesy calls to the national chairman and the presentations made calling on him to continue beyond the stipulated three months’ tenure was an invitation to “trouble, anarchy” and the return of “impunity” in the PDP.
He said since Senator Sherif has never come out to accept or reject the calls for tenure elongation, he should come out with very clear statement exonerating himself from what he called “devilish plans” and maintain his stand on the three months given to him by the NEC.
He said, “The present NWC received an overwhelming ovation and admiration at the meeting of the national caucus, BoT and NEC by overlooking their 2017 tenure in support of the three months approval of the respected organs of the party which should strictly be complied with. Instead of listening to the praise singers, Modu Sherif should follow the path of honour and integrity by simply taking a bow in May, 2016, after the national convention.
“May I also strongly warn on the dangers of not adhering to the recommendations of Senator Ike Ekweremadu’s post election Review Committee (2015) that the party should seek its 2019 presidential candidate from the North of Nigeria to compensate for the obvious violation of the zoning arrangement in the 2011 election which led to a major apathy against the party in the north from 2011 culminating in the poor performance of the party in 2015 elections.

Who cares about their zoning whatever?
Re: 2019: Tension In PDP Over Moves To Violate Zoning-daily Trust by Pidggin(f):
They should scrap zoning, all we want is a person who will move this country forward. From our past experiences who has zoning helped apart from those who gain appointments because their kindred is in power, between the North has ruled for so long, give us a candidate from another region .
Re: 2019: Tension In PDP Over Moves To Violate Zoning-daily Trust by Opinedecandid(m):
Why tension?

Zone to the north, zone to the north, zone to the north...

At the end of the day, even the Presidential Candidate might not be able to win his Unit for the Party because of gross unpopularity.

Such sentiments should be discarded, abeg.

Winning the elections is a stronger and better sentiment than fielding a northern candidate just to satisfy zoning and sectional considerations.

The greatest disservice was Jonathan even contesting the first time around.

If his ambition wasn't worth the blood of any Nigerian in 2011 believe me he would most likely have been president today ensuring PDP (God forbid) ruled for 24 years.

Anyhow, they can begin to fight as usual.

This present government has a task at hand hopefully the country enjoys some gains and returns of good governance.

The party of tribalists and avarice should just die a natural death.

I just hope and pray they violate zoning so 2019 will be a walkover for APC. PDP should remain what it is, A regional party. In fact with the greed in the 5% region other regional party like APGA will steal some of PDP small show. Lol

Looking at the entire Northern Nigeria, I don't see any politician in PDP that can change the country. It is time we clamor for techs and smart guys instead of looking political heavy weights that only come to satisfy their cronies.

hmm...politics palava.

Anyway, you guys should forget all these and face your eternity. Where will you spend eternity? 99% of people will surely make it to Jehovah's hell fire while 1% will go to the world beyond. When you get to hell fire, please remember to call the name of the creator of the universe (Domino Reverad) and you shall be free from hell.

Jehovah is only a son to Domino Reverad. Jehovah creates only hell fire and he is the same person confusing the world(Jehovah/Yahweh/Allah), etc.

He is a choleric son of Almighty Reverad. I pray you find the truth someday cry

To stand a chance or split votes, go lobby Donald Duke alongside a vibrant young orator from the North with endearing charisma to mesmerize young electorates.
Re: 2019: Tension In PDP Over Moves To Violate Zoning-daily Trust by fulanimafia: 2:26pm On Mar 30, 2016
That would be the final nail in PDP's coffin. They tried it in 2011 and in led to their defeat in 2015 through internal wrangling.

KOWA/Labour party, your season is near.
