The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has directed its committee on zoning of party national offices headed by Governor Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom State to put in more effort to arrive at an acceptable
zoning format.
Earlier, reports about the proposed zoning arrangement indicated
that the committee had zoned the chairmanship position to the north along with the presidency which many party stakeholders especially from the south kicked against.
To this end, the zoning committee of the party
Wednesday scheduled
another meeting next
week in an Uyo in attempt to resolve the
crisis generally by the
zoning arrangement it
proposed.
The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, who
disclosed this yesterday however, said no date had been fixed for the meeting.
He said the governors
and National Assembly
members were in consultations to ensure
that the committee arrives at a zoning arrangement that will
be acceptable and beneficial to all the six
geopolitical zones.
Meanwhile, the party
has also shifted this
weekend’s ward congress by one week.
In a statement signed
by Metuh yesterday, he
said the ward congress
will now hold on April 30
while he local government congress
will hold on May 5.
The date for the national convention still
remains May 21.
