Recently, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State was quoted for saying “We will surprise Nigerians with our plans”. He was obviously speaking about the zoning plans of the PDP. Atiku plans to contest for president under the platform of PDP based on expectation that the party will not zone the presidency to a specific region. If Wike and other governors in his camp insist on zoning to south, the former Vice President may have to leave PDP and look for alternative party.
The former Vice President Atiku Abubakar appeared to be relentless in his quest to actualize his presidential ambition. This clearly indicates that he is determine to contest for the presidency and won’t hesitate to change a political party if PDP refused to zone the ticket to the north.
The issue of zoning presidential ticket has been the major topic of discussion in Nigeria’s political sphere. Dreams and aspirations of many political tycoons may be crushed if political parties insist on zoning tickets to specific region.
