Why Only Northerners Contested PDP’s 2019 Presidential Primaries
The PDP zoned its 2019 presidential primaries to the North, and no southerner took part. Review of the results shows all contestants were northern politicians. A promise was made that a southerner would contest in the 2023 primaries. However, Atiku Abubakar defeated Nyesom Wike, triggering divisions within the party and influencing government formation. It’s surprising that many northerners remain silent about this outcome. If you aren’t familiar with party politics, research the context before commenting—northern stakeholders understand the dynamics. May Allah make this process fair for us all.
