Kwara Governorship Is Not Zoned, Says PDP Chairman
Amidst fears being expressed among governorship aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara state, the leadership of the party has said that it has not zoned governorship ticket to any of the three senatorial districts in the state.
Speaking with reporters yesterday in Ilorin, the PDP chairman in the state, Chief Iyiola Oyedepo, said Kwara state PDP governorship candidate could come from any of the senatorial districts of the state.
"I want to assure that there is no zoning in PDP Kwara. It is not a situation of our governor either coming from the South, Central or from the North. Our governorship candidate can come from any senatorial district of the state."
He allayed the fears of all contestants that there is no "anointed candidate" in PDP, added that, "If we would anoint a candidate, we could not have allowed anybody to buy the form, except the anointed. If our ticket were meant for a senatorial district, we would not have collected money from about 12 aspirants, knowing fully well that they are not all from the same senatorial district.Our candidate can come from any part of Kwara ".
Oyedepo said members of the party would resolve all their differences amicably in the choice of candidate through fair and transparent primaries.
