Ahead of the 2027 general elections, Regional Colligate Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, South-South, Onochie Osheokwu, has urged the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to zone its presidential ticket to the South.
Osheokwu made this call on Monday while fielding questions in an interview on Arise Television monitored by Newspot.
His remark is coming as political parties gather momentum for next year’s general elections.
According to him, Nigerians are well aware of who would be the strongest candidate, adding that the former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, from the Southeast, also represents the South
He said, “We in the South-South want the ADC to zone it presidential ticket to the South.
“Among all the contenders, we in the Obidient movement believe the best candidate is clear. The one who embodies the conscience of the movement and the leadership that Nigerians are seeking.
“What happened at Chief John Odigie-Oyegun was a consultation. Like every other person is saying. But it’s so bad that the politics of Nigeria has been reduced to propaganda and not the basic issue confronting the country.”
