The Labour Party has officially zoned its 2027 presidential ticket to the southern region of the country.
The party’s acting National Chairperson, Nenadi Usman, confirmed the decision during an interview with journalists in Abuja on Tuesday.
“We have one certain decision that we have taken, and that is that we will certainly not field any aspirant from northern Nigeria.
“We have zoned the position to Southern Nigeria. So if any northerner comes now to want to contest elections, we certainly will not accept that,” she said.
