The Labour Party (LP) has officially zoned its 2027 presidential ticket to the South, according to the party’s National Chairperson, Senator Nenadi Usman.
Usman made the announcement on Tuesday while speaking in Abuja, stating that the decision had already been settled within the party.
She emphasised that the zoning is aimed at promoting equity and fairness ahead of the next general elections.
The declaration comes amid ongoing leadership issues in the party, with Usman’s faction asserting control following recent court rulings and INEC recognition.
Political observers note that the move could influence potential aspirants and reshape alliances within the opposition party as it prepares for its presidential primary, reportedly scheduled for May 23, 2027.
Further details on the exact zoning formula and eligibility criteria are expected to be clarified by the party leadership in the coming days.
