A chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has backed the party’s zoning of its presidential ticket to the South.
Kwankwaso said the zoning allows the South to complete its turn in producing national leadership.
Speaking during the party’s national convention on Saturday, the former Kano State governor said the party’s decision presents an opportunity for true national healing.
He promised to abide by the NDC’s agreement to ensure fairness and federal character in all ramifications.
Kwankwaso said: “It is therefore with a great sense of unity and solidarity that, as a loyal party member, I support the decision to zone the presidential ticket of the NDC to the South so that it allows the region to complete its turn in producing national leadership.
“This represents a true opportunity for national healing. We shall work in accordance with the party’s agreement to ensure fairness and federal character in all ramifications.
“The leadership standard we shall set will therefore restore Nigeria’s dignity and will guarantee that our citizens at home and in the diaspora will be treated with respect and dignity.
“Lastly, we can only achieve that by continuing to mobilise people to register with INEC to vote and with the NDC to belong to this noble cause. Please register today.”
