Governor of Sokoto, Aminu Tambuwal has called on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to zone its presidential ticket to the north.<\/p>\n

This was stated on Tuesday by Tambuwal\u00a0when he met members of the party in Lafia, the capital of Nasarawa, to discuss his presidential ambition.<\/p>\n

According to the governor, with the administration of former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, the south has accounted for over 14 years of the party\u2019s 16 years in power.<\/p>\n

He also said the late President Umaru Yar\u2019Adua, who was from the north, only spent two years in office before control shifted to the south.<\/p>\n

The governor added that the zoning situation in the PDP<\/a> is different from that of other political parties because of the party\u2019s peculiarities.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the interest of fairness, the presidential ticket should be zoned to the north,\u201d NAN quoted him as saying.<\/p>\n

\u201cOut of the six presidential candidates the PDP fielded from 1999, four were from the south and only two are from the north.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tambuwal added that the party could also throw the presidential ticket open to all the regions if it does not want to zone it to the north.<\/p>\n

On his part, Anyim Pius Anyim, former senate president, asked the PDP to consider zoning the presidential ticket to the south-east.<\/p>\n

Anyim spoke on Tuesday at a stakeholders\u2019 meeting in Nasarawa state.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the opposition party has inaugurated a\u00a037-member committee to make a recommendation on the zoning of the presidential ticket.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
