Yoruba Leaders Reject Zoning for Kwara Governorship in 2027!
Yoruba leaders in Kwara State have rejected the idea of zoning the governorship ticket for the 2027 election, emphasizing the need for competence and capacity in candidates over regional considerations. The stakeholders from Kwara South Senatorial District asserted that the governorship seat should be open to all qualified Kwarans, highlighting the importance of meritocracy in the electoral process.
