2023: PDP Zoning Committee Decides Today As Aspirants Strategise

The Peoples Democratic Party‘s zoning committee is expected to reach a conclusion on the zoning arrangement of the party ahead of the 2023 presidential election.

The decision will be announced by the 37-member committee of the main opposition party.

There had been speculations that PDP might jettison the zoning arrangement of the party to allow its presidential aspirants battle for the party’s ticket.

Presidential aspirants have been consulting stakeholders in the party across the country to ensure that the committee’s decision would be favourable to them.

A source close to one of the presidential aspirant who spoke with Daily Trust said, “We are waiting for the outcome of the committee, but that will not stop us from our consultations. It is a continuous process. No matter what the committee decides, we will see after that.

“But for now we are carrying on with our normal activities. We know the committee has the interest of the party at heart. They will do the right thing.”

Another source working for consensus in the party said, “We cannot really say anything now until the committee comes out with its resolution.

“We don’t want to overreach ourselves; we are already working on the consensus arrangement. Anything the party comes out with we will take it from there.”
