PDP Chairmanship:Zoning violates Gentleman Agreement



The fact that delegates voted in deciding which zone gets the position of PDP chairmanship violates the gentlemen agreement of zoning the position to South West.


So was the position some PDP delegates.

One of the aspirants, Chief Raymond Dokpesi, who had disagreed with the zoning was the first to pick his form at the PDP national secretariat yesterday. 

According to him, the zoning was not legally binding on any aspirants. 

It was gathered that during the meeting of the Southern PDP stakeholders in Port Harcourt on Thursday night, a vote was taken to decide on whether it should go to the South west or not.

 89 of the 92 stakeholders present voted in favour of South West ‎while three voted against.

 Also yesterday, a former deputy national chairman of the PDP, Chief Bode George, picked his form to contest ‎the Chairmanship position.
