Mr Ologbondiyan said those behind the reports were political terrorists whose plan was to mislead the public and cause disaffection within the ranks of the PDP with the hope of using such fabrications to further their own selfish political ambitions.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has denied reports in a section of the media suggesting that it plots to retain the zoning of its presidential slot in the North East and South East.

The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, addressing a news conference on Sunday in Abuja, described the reports as mere speculation.

Mr Ologbondiyan said those behind the reports were political terrorists whose plan was to mislead the public and cause disaffection within the ranks of the PDP with the hope of using such fabrications to further their own selfish political ambitions.

He urged all PDP members and supporters to ignore those seeking to cause disaffection in the party’s ranks.

“The PDP states categorically that our governors are not divided along any lines of ambition towards 2023, neither is there any plot to stop the ambition of any of our members.

“For the avoidance of doubt, our party is yet to discuss the 2023 presidential election, overtly or covertly, at any time whatsoever.

“If anything, the PDP is currently working with Nigerians on how to win its elections in Kogi and Bayelsa governorship elections.

“We will not be distracted by individuals who found themselves operating in the highest offices of the land but failing in governance,” Mr Ologbondiyan said.

He said that as a party, they were also working with their respective state governors and legislators across the country, in line with the party’s manifesto to improve on the welfare and development of Nigerians.

Moreover, it is also imperative to counsel, without any equivocation, that enemies of our party, who feel threatened by the rising profile of Gov. Nyesom Wike, should have a rethink on their incessant attacks on the governor,” he said.

Mr Ologbondiyan appreciated the contribution of Mr Wike, as well as all other PDP governors, to the growth of the party.

Whether they have zoned it or not is immaterial. What I just cant understand is Pdp's hatred and disregard for South East.

After all the years of relentless hard work for the party, the party has adamantly rejected tinkering with such an idea as a South East presidential ticket!

This is the height of hatred and disrespect any entity can give its benefactor.

Unlike the crazy looting going on with the Alliance of Past/Present Crooks, APC and the barawo bubu cabal?

nabegibeg:
Why are you pained

QuotaSystem:
Eastern propaganda machine in full gear lol. They were just jittery & testing the waters to provoke a response.

PDP are not that daft to attempt a losing formula twice. Haba give them some credit.

As a core Northerner in full support of the Presidency going south in 2023, it was quite interesting how the PDP spokesman was low-key presenting Wike as their likely candidate . Intriguing times ahead.

I am just puzzled as to why the SE is so scared of contesting the Presidency with the SW. I guess the SS will take over.

Wike/Tambuwal - PDP 2023.

Now, Nyesom is Igbo name even though he is from SS...just like Amaechi. Therefore Nyesom Wike and PDP will get full support in SS and SE. They will attempt to capture NW with Tambuwal but it will not happen. This means SE will wait a full 16years forward from 2023 before it has a go at the Presidency.

Alanpoza007:
They are satisfied with the disrespect from PDP but angry with Yorubas potentially getting APC Presidency ticket slot they laboured hard to get through alliance and loyalty. Imagine such an irony.

QuotaSystem:
Absolutely shameless.

I predicted this as far back as 2015 when their anti-North hate speech was at it's fiercest. I told them that they would still swallow their vomit & campaign for us in the near future for reasons that were obvious even then, but they were too myopic to see beyond their nostrils. Now they want "born troway, almajiri, cow fvker" support and seeking the "arse kissing mere commissioner houseboy" position like their lives depend on it . Komin duhun dare, sai safiya ta waye

Suddenly we are now the best thing since foreign rice

Only those spell cast people from the brown roof region will believe the junk news from the Lagos-Ibadan expressway newspapers trying to foist their patron cum drug lord on Nigerians even when majority of Nigerians have told them that Aso Rock is no longer for thieves who pocketed their state for their selfish self and their inhumane family members while dashing their spell cast people some crumbs to keep them forever happy as slaves




How can one man pocket a whole state, and be dashing the people crumbs during election and they are happy to be his slave, honestly these people deserve an award for being the most sheepish followers on earth!

iamjavadem:
Sounds like every state in Nigeria.

fairfora:
I would say Obi/Tambuwal. If obi messes up( though unlikely) , he would he shown a red card after 4 years, like Jonathan. Buhari is having his second term because he maintains his integrity, though some of his ministers performed below average, the fact which he already knows.

That lame trick can only work on your fellow Igbo when you want to label him 'sabo' out of frustration. Try harder

Oh yes, the SE is very afraid of facing the SW in an all south 2023 contest and you know it, which is why you want to piggyback on Arewa instead of seeking PDP's ticket against APC's SW candidate. Prove otherwise if you dare.

Wike/Tambuwal vs Osibanjo/El-Rufai is a goal

Yebosola:
You are just been sentimental over nothing, will APC be daft and give it's slot to the region that hates it with passion? Answer it yourself, anybody that goes to APC is tagged Efulefu/Terrorist by u lots, Oji Kali, Okorocha comes to mind, go and disturb your PDP, your theory is always if I can't have the child, let divide her. Shoot!!!

kelvinginzie:
Pdp could not even campaign with Obi in the North

franchasng:
No, Southwest own is extraordinary because every other region is crying and trying their best to liberate their state from the grip of foolish politicians, but Yorubas, especially Yoruba Muslims are happy that Tinubu pocketed Lagos state in his agbada for years now.

Go to Lagos, the state is in total ruins....no road networks for a big city like Lagos......infrastructure is dying completely despite the huge IGR generated in Lagos.....still they keep screaming that Lagos is the most progressive state, how


Lagos should have been as pretty as top cities like London, Pretoria, Tokyo, etc if not for that greedy man and his accomplices swallowing the huge billions generated in Lagos, its a shame for blacks as a whole

fairfora:
Hmmm. You think so? This issue of north dictating who becomes president came back during Buhari's regime. North didn't vote jonathan and yet, he won fair and square. All the pdp needs do is win just 3 or 4 states in the core north, clear the middle belt and the entire south. They should come and meet with our leaders in the south west and balance the equation with appointments, that's all. From all indications, obaseki is decamping to the pdp before election and the entire south becomes traditionally pdp, except the south west.

mrvitalis:
Why didn't the south west contest in 2015 ? Or 2019 ? You Yoruba guys have an edge in the north for now so its not a fair fight

Same reason you people didn't contest in 2015 is the same reason we cant now

QuotaSystem:
So were Sowore & Fela Durotoye Fulani?

And you think I'm Yoruba?

What are you smoking this early?
