Bode George: I Do Not Agree With Atiku, Zoning is Necessary to Appease The Minds of The Masses

 

The former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party – the PDP, Chief Bode George, has warned that any attempt to jettison the PDP zoning arrangement, will affect the party’s chances in 2023. Citing Section 7 sub-section 3(c) of the party’s Constitution, he noted that in the spirit of equity, fairness and justice, the PDP must zone the presidential ticket of the party to the South East.

Recalling how the founding fathers of the PDP came up with the idea of zoning, he said the leaders took the decision to ensure equity and fairness just as he urged the National Working Committee of the party not to ignore it.

George, who was a member of the PDP zoning committee, said the zoning committee urged the National Executive Committee, NEC, of the PDP “to listen and feel the pulse of the people on the issue”.
