reports that Kwankwaso said the move reflects the party’s power-sharing structure and commitment to fairness and regional balance.

He made the remarks during the NDC national convention in Abuja, where he addressed delegates, supporters, and party stakeholders.

Kwankwaso explained that he supports the zoning arrangement to allow the South complete its eight-year rotational cycle.

According to him, the decision is consistent with the party’s established zoning principles and internal agreements.

He also called on Nigerians and party members to actively participate in the NDC’s mobilisation efforts ahead of the 2027 elections, urging them to register and get involved.

His endorsement came shortly after the NDC officially adopted a resolution zoning its 2027 presidential ticket to the South for a single four-year term.

The decision was reached during the party’s national convention following a motion moved by Afam Victor Ogene, the lawmaker representing Ogbaru Federal Constituency in Anambra State.

Announcing the resolution, NDC National Chairman Moses Cleopas said the zoning arrangement is part of a broader power-sharing formula designed to balance regional interests within the opposition coalition.

Cleopas added that the presidential ticket would return to the North in 2031 after the South completes its tenure.

He further confirmed that the party’s National Executive Committee also ratified the election of members of the National Working Committee during the convention.

The zoning decision is expected to strengthen the chances of southern aspirants, including former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi, ahead of the party’s presidential primary.
