The Ondo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has decided that its governorship candidate for the forthcoming election will emerge from the southern zone of the state.
The spokesperson of the state PDP, Kennedy Peretei, made this known in a chat with journalists on Friday in Akure, the Ondo State capital.
He stated that the decision was further approved at a stakeholders’ meeting of the party on Friday in Akure.
Peretei added that the idea of a southern candidate is in line with the current political trend and it would be unwise to rise against the tide in the state.
