PDP Supporters Reject Zoning of 2027 Presidential Ticket, Warn of Self-Defeat

Supporters of Olawepo-Hashim reject the zoning of the PDP presidential ticket to the South in 2027, calling it 'self-defeating.' Dr. Gbenga, a PDP leader in Lagos, warned that the decision to zone the ticket to the South could harm the party's chances in the upcoming election.

The move has sparked mixed reactions among PDP stakeholders, with some Northern aspirants planning to challenge the decision at the party's National Convention. PDP chieftain Ola Azeez emphasized the need to revisit the zoning arrangement, stating that it could lead to internal disruptions.

The supporters argue that the party should focus on winning the election first before considering zoning issues.
