As the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) meets today to consider the report of the Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi-led sub committee on zoning, controversy over the report has recorded some intriguing twists.

It emerged yesterday that political leaders from the North have taken different positions on zoning of the chairmanship position to the region.

In the meeting of the PDP governors that preceded the announcement of the zoning, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State, who is the only PDP governor from North Central, was reported to have expressed his unflinching support for zoning of the chairmanship of the PDP to the North. He disclosed that at the moment, the political rearrangements thrown up by the chairmanship position are being resolved across the zones.

However, some leaders of the party in the North West and North East appeared unconvinced by the repeated explanations of the Ugwuanyi committee. “Ab initio, it was made clear that our committee does not have the mandate on any other matter regarding zoning or otherwise, except that which regards the party at the federal level.”

The former Military Administrator of Ondo State, who said he would not be able to attend the meeting noted: “As an elder of the party, I advice that all what we must do must be directed at elevating people from poverty. It is a break or make meeting tomorrow but with the blessing of Almighty God, we will triumph.
