PDP Clarifies Zoning Policy for 2027 Elections, All Aspirants Welcome

PDP's National Legal Adviser, Kamaldeen Ajibade, clarified the party's stance on zoning, emphasizing that all aspirants are free to contest in the 2027 elections. This clarification comes amidst debates on the role of zoning in Nigerian politics, with technocrat Gbenga's movement advocating against using zoning to exclude competent leaders.

The South West Coordinator of Gbenga Hashim Solidarity Movement, Abass Olaniyi, hailed PDP's approach as a victory for democracy and inclusivity. The move is seen as an effort to bridge divides and enhance fairness in the upcoming elections, with speculations growing around potential presidential bids in 2027.
