PDP Disqualifies Northern Aspirants, Zones Presidency to South for 2027 Elections

PDP disqualifies northern politicians as it zones the presidency to the south for the 2027 elections. The party's decision blocks northern aspirants who refused to join Atiku Abubakar's coalition movement.
Former Senate President Saraki, eyeing the presidency, is among those affected. Atiku's coalition adopted ADC as its political platform, prompting his resignation from PDP.
The move aims to unify the party ahead of the elections, with Mohammed, chairman of the PDP Governors' Forum, yet to react to the zoning. The zoning decision reflects a strategic shift in PDP's presidential candidacy strategy.
