2019 Presidency: Southeast PDP Rejects Fayose, Embraces Zoning To North
The Peoples Democratic Party in the Southeast geopolitical zone has endorsed the party’s zoning arrangement, which zoned the office of the President to the North.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Southeast says it will only support a candidate of northern extraction for the presidency in the 2019 general election.
The Zonal Chairman of the party, Austin Umahi, disclosed this while reading a communiqué at the end of a zonal meeting of the PDP in Enugu.
This is coming days after Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti (Southwest) declared his intention to run in 2019.
PDP has zoned the presidential ticket to the north while it zoned the chairmanship position to the Southwest.
”We are committed to the PDP zoning arrangement of president to the North and national party chairman to the South of Nigeria.
”We mandate our governors, zonal chairman and national assembly leaders to liaise with other zones to reach an understanding in respect of the next national chairman of our party,” Umahi said.
Umahi stated that they were fully in support of the party’s candidate for the November 18 Anambra governorship election.
The meeting was attended by a former Vice President Alex Ekwueme, the governors of Abia and Enugu states while Ebonyi governor was represented by his deputy.
Also in attendance were Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, Col. Austin Akobundu (rtd.), Emeka Ihedioha and the Legal Adviser of the party in Abia, Ukpai Ukairo.

32 Reasons That Show That President Muhammadu Buhari Has Been Replaced With A Double – Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has taken to Facebook to buttress Nnamdi Kanu’s claim of President Buhari being substituted with a double who now parades himself as the President. He highlighted some observations to support the claim. 1. Buhari went for surgery in January. 2. The story was that he didn’t quite make it and was brain-dead. 3. Aisha came back crying in April. 4. Aisha was later barred by Mamman Daura and Abba Kyari from seeing Buhari. 5. In June/July, Buhari started receiving visitors in London. 6. Story was that he was always laughing (methinks his double was still learning the ropes and was always laughing to hide what he didn’t know). 7. Buhari supposedly arrived Nigeria in July. 8. The Buhari wasn’t holding meetings or seen in public. 9. The Buhari became more vicious (even beyond his own evil threshold). 10. Ango Abdulahi had earlier alleged he was a double Buhari. 11. FFK had a private interview alleging it was a double (buhari’s look-alike, Jubrin from Sudan) masquerading as president buhari. 12. AIT was threatened with calamity should the interview be aired. 13. The interview was docked and AIT paid. 14. Nnamdi Kanu alleged he was Jubrin, buhari’s look-alike from Sudan and not Buhari. 15. The Army was sent to attack Nnamdi Kanu and kidnap him. 16. The attack was most unwise and was too risky to the country, yet it happened (the cabal wants the story dead by whatever means). 17. The IPOB attack backfired. 18. The world powers commenced asking questions. 19. The London surgeons are being questioned. 20. America, UK, France are smelling blood and seek engagements. 21. Buhari or Jubrin/Cabal are vulnerable and pull out of most global organizations. 22. The alleged double (buhari’s look-alike, Jubrin from Sudan) doesn’t look up the few times he’s in public. 23. The alleged double seems 15yrs younger. 24. The alleged double is somewhat shorter than the twin. 25. The alleged double has a different earlobe. 26. The alleged double has a hairline a distance away from the ears. 27. The alleged double is darker brown. 28. No one undergoing chemotherapy would have facial hair intact at the time. 29. The new Buhari sees without glasses. 30. The new one has a different nose; beaked like an Arab’s. 31. Zahra complains to the minister and not her father. 32. The Army is suddenly very powerful and extremely dumb..This is robot rules Nigeria.

Fayose should embrace APGA and buy thier presidential ticket…..he May win.
I noticed there is nothing like primary election again in Nigeria, PDP is still corrupt and
PDP wants to struggle northern votes with APC.
Things may NOT go well with BUHARI 2019
