Emerging report indicates that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Chapter, has on Saturday, endorsed former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, as its preferred Candidate for the 2023 Presidency.
Shortly before the announcement, the PDP Leaders from the FCT, observed that the PDP needs a Candidate from the North Central to win the 2023 Presidential election.
They argued that the North Central zone deserves a shot at the Presidency, because despite the immense sacrifice made by sons and daughters of the zone in order to build the PDP, restore and sustain democracy in Nigeria since 1999, no one from the zone has been considered for the number one job in the country.
During the endorsement meeting, a Chieftain of the party from the FCT, Alhaji Ogah Doma, moved the motion for the adoption of Saraki as the choice of the North Central for the PDP Presidential ticket of the party; the motion was seconded and unanimously adopted by all members present.
Those at the meeting included PDP Stalwarts, such as the FCT PDP Chairman, Sunday Zakka, Senator Sulaiman Adokwe, and Dr. Musa Ahmadu, among others.
