(Nigeria) Chief Raymond Dokpesi, a national chairmanship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, said thatthe party zoned the position to the South, not South-West.
Similarly, he said that the presidency slot of the party had
been given to the North.
Dokpesi stated this on Sunday while speaking with newsmen in
Nasarawa, Nasarawa state.
“I think the media are helping in confusing the matter
regarding the national chairmanship position of our party, PDP, as there was no
time that the leadership of the party at the national level zoned the
chairmanship position to anybody.
“Chairman of caretaker committee made it clear that as the
presidency is zoned to the three geo-political zones in the North for 2019, so
national chairmanship is zoned to the three geo-political zones in the South.
“That is the position that will be sustained and maintained
up till the convention in Port Harcourt. I am contesting for this chairmanship
position so as to unite all members of the party so that the party can come out
stronger and victorious in 2019,’’ he said.
Dokpesi said that PDP was the only party that could provide
support as well as make Nigeria’s economy stable and great.
He urged Nigerians to support the party for overall development
of the country.
“I believe PDP is the only party that can provide support,
really deal with the challenges of unity and stability of the country as the
past PDP successive government kept the country together.
``By the time we return in 2019, we will have a better
Nigeria,’’ he said.
He called on the party supporters and others Nigerians to be
law-abiding, respect constituted authorities and not to allow themselves to be
used by selfish individuals to foment trouble in the society.
Dokpesi, former chairman of Daar Communications, appealed
Nigerians to live in peace with one another irrespective of ethnic, religious
and political affiliation ``for the development of the country.”
