Rabiu Kwankwaso, a prominent member of Nigeria’s opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says he supports the party’s decision to zone its 2027 presidential ticket to the South. The remarks are made in connection with the PDP’s internal convention and its power-sharing arrangements among regions. Kwankwaso argues that zoning is meant to ensure fairness by allowing the South to “complete its turn” in producing national leadership. He frames his position as aligned with party unity and solidarity, presenting himself as a loyal party member endorsing the decision. According to the reports, Kwankwaso’s support rests on the principle that regional rotation promotes balance in leadership selection and reflects the party’s broader approach to power sharing. The outlets agree that Kwankwaso has publicly endorsed the zoning outcome for the 2027 presidential ticket, without providing additional details on the specific office allocations beyond the geographic direction to the South.
