PDP Govs in closed-door meeting

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors are currently in a closed-door meeting at the Zamfara State Government House in Gusau. The reason for the meeting is unclear, but it may be related to the recent leadership crisis within the party.

The PDP was expected to hold its 102nd National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Monday, where the zoning of the 2027 presidential ticket was a major decision to be made. The party had three options for zoning the ticket: to the South, to the North, or to leave it open.

While some stakeholders are in favor of zoning it to the South, arguing that the South still has four years left, others are pushing for an open zoning. Further details about the ongoing meeting are yet to be disclosed.
