The national executive committee (NEC) of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) has approved the zoning of the national chairmanship
position to the north.
Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesperson of the PDP, disclosed this
on Thursday while briefing journalists after a closed-door meeting of the NEC
in Abuja.
The development comes days after governors elected on the
platform of the PDP voted in favour of zoning the position to the north.
According to the PDP spokesman, the north and the south
would also swap current party positions accordingly.
“The 94th NEC of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) held today and well considered the report of
governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi on zoning and NEC approves the zoning as presented,
which as you understand, the positions that are in the south, will go to the north
and the positions that are in the north will go to the south,” he said.
Ologbondiyan, however, added that the party is yet to take a
decision on the zoning of the presidential ticket.
He explained that the NEC may schedule another meeting to
discuss the report of the Bala Mohammed committee on the party’s performance in
the past presidential election.
Ologbondiyan added that the national convention of the party
slated for October 30 and 31 will hold as scheduled.
