The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees (BOT) acting chairman, Walid Jubrin wants the party's 2019 presidential candidate to come from the Northern part of the country.     

Addressing newsmen in Abuja, Walid said, “The national caucus, BOT, and NEC have already approved this recommendation by unanimously zoning 2019 presidency to the north; PM NEWS reports.

“To change this decision now is a further invitation to impunity, the lack of party democracy, non-adherence to party zoning principles, influence of ‘god fatherism’, the lack of respect for the decision of constituted party organs, self-imposition and killing the PDP.

“Anyone who attempts to reverse the position by changing it with another position will ever remain an enemy to the north, a mercenary and killer of PDP.

“All members of the party must unite not to allow themselves to be bought by anyone and not to be tempted with anything to divide and rule us. All PDP members must be ready to cooperate to say final bye-bye to impunity, the lack of internal democracy, god-fatherism and naked exhibition of mans inhumanity to man by man.”
