PDP Zoning Crisis: North Central Pushes for Chairmanship Change
The agitation for chairmanship in the PDP has reignited a crisis over zoning, with the North Central seeking the position currently held by the North. The party's zoning report recommended that the chairmanship remain in the North and the presidential ticket in the South.
Stakeholders are discussing the need for equity and fairness in the decision-making process. Leaders from the South recently met in Lagos to discuss the zoning issue.
The North West is positioned to produce the next national chairman, following the party's longstanding zoning arrangement. Former governors Ibrahim Shekarau and Ahmed Makarfi, along with Tanimu Turaki, are in the race.
The North West is expected to play a significant role in the upcoming leadership selection process.
