Amid intense calls for power shift from the North to the South for the 2023 presidential election, the main opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party, has said it will not stop aspirants of northern origin from contesting its presidential ticket.

It said it would leave the ticket open for all aspirants irrespective of their states or geopolitical zones.

Southern groups such as Afenifere in the South-West and Ohanaeze in the South-East, prominent individuals across the country, the Southern Governors Forum and many others had called for power shift to the South when the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , serves out his second tenure in May 2023.

He stated, “We must rescue the country from where it is today, and in doing that, we do not have to think of where the next President would come from, but the ability, experience and integrity to work. He said the PDP would have to ensure the emergence of its best aspirant that could guarantee its victory at the poll regardless of who other parties present.

“Our founding fathers never thought that another political party would win the presidency and that was why we never envisaged what is happening now, that another party would win the presidency apart from the PDP.

Very good

People crying under this tweet please note, - Politics is a Game of Money & Numbers - PDP is so desperate to regain power in 2023 - Best chance to regain power is Atiku - Igbo’s best chance at presidency is having Obi as a VP now Why do you think Obi hasn’t declared to Run?

If APC finally zones to the South, it would give them an edge. Surely would show that we have not learnt much from the last 8 years, but then we will wait and see how it turns out!

Beginning of failure , you cannot ignore the issue of equity and fair play, just to satisfy some egg heads , your forgetting ur the opposition that the people still distrust, cause it was ur corrupt misrule that birthed the monster called Apc.

They're joking, we know PDP is desperate

An anti-Igbo party

PDP's desperation to regain power in 2023 by its quest for another Northern candidate will get them squarely defeated - failing at d elections, equity and consistency in its power rotation principle.

This PDP self😂

They (PDP) need to wake up or sleep deep.
