BREAKING: APC Zones 2023 Presidency To South, Chairmanship To North
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has zoned its 2023 Presidential ticket to the South while the Chairman of the party in the March 26 convention will come from the North.
This was disclosed by Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-rufai in an interview with State House correspondents after a meeting between President Muhammadu Buhari and APC governors on Tuesday.
The Kaduna governor stated that the President and the governors agreed on the zoning formula for all the six geopolitical zones ahead of the 2023 general elections.
He said: “We have agreed on a zoning formula for all the six geopolitical zones and essentially, we swapped. Northern zones will take positions that Southern zones had in the last eight years and vice versa.”
“So, it’s a very simple, equitable and fair formula. We will now go back and consult at the zonal level, and look at the positions that are available and the process of the convention preparation will start in earnest. So by the grace of God on the 26th of March, we will have done a national convention.”
