2023: Support me, oppose zoning of Presidency to south – Atiku to PDP leaders
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has opposed the zoning of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential ticket ahead of the 2023 elections.
Speaking at the Party’s Board of Trustees meeting in Abuja yesterday, he urged them to ignore the calls to zone it’s presidential ticket to the southern part of the country and support his ambition
He said: “People have not stopped talking about power rotation and zoning, or whatever it is. For sure in the party, we invented and formulated this zoning policy simply because we wanted every part of this country to have a sense of belonging and I have paid my dues on the issue of zoning.
“So, therefore, you cannot come and try to imply that the PDP has not been following the zoning policy. The many years of PDP government eight years and six years all of them were from the south.”
you are too old for this and have achieved all there is to achieve so it’s better for you to leave it for someone good, competent and young enough to do it better…..
