2023: We’ll Subject Report On Zoning To Democratic Process – PDP Says
BY EVELYN DADU, ABUJA – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Tuesday declared that the recommendations proposed by the Governor Bala Mohammed-led Committee on the Review of the 2019 Elections of the party shall be subjected to democratic process by relevant organs of the party and consultation across all national interests.
It therefore pointedly said that it has not taken any decision on any of the recommendations.
The party which gave the clarification in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, also said that in this wise, it is yet to adopt any position on the zoning ahead of the 2023 Presidential elections.
The party expressed immense appreciation to the overwhelming interest by majority of Nigerians in the PDP as their national rallying point to elect a pan-Nigeria, unifying and people-oriented leadership that would rescue our nation from misrule, come 2023.
The PDP notes that such an unprecedented public interest and confidence in the party is responsible for the widespread discussions and enquiries on the recommendations of the Committee on the Review of the 2019 Elections.
The statement further states; “While our party appreciates the enthusiasm by Nigerians on our nomination processes, the PDP assures that its decision on zoning will be the product of wide consultation, discussions and consensus building, taking into consideration the aggregate aspiration and hope of the generality of the Nigerian people.
“Our party has however noted the disposition and line of discussion from various political interests across the six geo-political zones of our country in this regard, and at the appropriate time, the collective understanding of Nigerians will prevail,” it said.
