The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has zoned its Presidential ticket to Southern Nigeria for a four-year term.
This decision was made at the “historic maiden” National Convention of the Party.
Former Governor of Kano State, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, expressed his “delight” as he participated at the NDC’s National Convention; he said, he “wholeheartedly” endorsed the decision by the Party in the zoning of its Presidential ticket for the 2027 Elections.
Kwankwaso, 2023 Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), described the zoning decision by the Party as a “move that strengthens national cohesion and equity”.
On the event, the Defence Minister from 2003 to 2007, said on X: it “brought together party members from across the country in a powerful display of unity and a shared commitment to deepening democracy in Nigeria.”
Kwankwaso hailed Senator Seriake Dickson, National Leader of the NDC, for the Convention which was delivered in a “well-organised and impactful” manner.
Also, he expressed his “sincere” gratitude to former Governor of Anambra State and “brother”, Peter Obi, who also participated in the event; as well as, commended the Obidient Movement “for adding colour and enthusiasm” to the Convention.
Kwankwaso, who decamped from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) alongside Obi, said, in “togetherness”, hope will be restored, unity will be promoted and a better future will be delivered for Nigeria.
