The National Working Committee, NWC, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has clarified that it has not zoned its ticket for the November 16, 2024 governorship election to any part of Ondo State.
This was disclosed in a statement by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunbaga.
He said the party at its meeting on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, assured all intending governorship aspirants in Ondo State of a level playing ground in the nomination process.
“The NWC further assures that the nomination process and activities leading to the governorship election will be all-inclusive, free, fair and transparent in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) and the Party Guideline for the Election.
“To ensure reconciliation and unity among Party stakeholders in the state, the NWC approved the convening of a special meeting of party leaders, comprising Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State and top party leaders from Ondo State,” he stated.
The party urged all stakeholders “to be consistent in display of fidelity to the Party and work together in the greater interest of the party and the people of Ondo State who are looking up to the PDP to rescue their State from the failed All Progressives Congress (APC) administration.”
