A high-ranking member of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Dan Ulasi, has expressed his views on the party’s chances of winning the presidency in the 2027 general elections. Speaking on Arise Television’s Morning Show, Ulasi stated that the outcome of the election is ultimately determined by divine will. He emphasized that while the party is making efforts to reorganize, its survival and success depend on factors beyond human control.
During the party’s last National Executive Committee meeting, at least seven PDP governors were in attendance, which Ulasi described as a positive sign of unity and commitment to repositioning the party. The PDP has zoned its presidential ticket to the southern region, with Ulasi suggesting that fairness dictates it should be micro-zoned to the South East. This region has yet to produce a president in the current democratic dispensation, making it a significant consideration for the party.
Ulasi’s comments come as the PDP attempts to strengthen its position ahead of the 2027 elections. The party’s efforts to reorganize and rebuild are crucial in determining its chances of success. With the presidential ticket zoned to the southern region, the party’s next steps will be closely watched. The decision to micro-zone the ticket to the South East could have significant implications for the party’s candidacy and overall strategy.
The 2027 general elections are expected to be highly competitive, with various parties vying for power. The PDP’s ability to reorganize and present a strong candidate will be critical in determining its chances of winning the presidency. As the party moves forward, it will be important to consider the perspectives of its members and the broader electorate. The outcome of the election will depend on a range of factors, including the party’s strategy, the candidates, and the will of the voters.
The PDP’s efforts to reposition itself ahead of the 2027 elections are part of a broader trend in Nigerian politics. As the country prepares for the next general elections, parties are re-evaluating their strategies and positioning themselves for success. The PDP’s decision to zone its presidential ticket to the southern region reflects the complex dynamics of Nigerian politics, where regional considerations play a significant role. As the election approaches, the party’s ability to navigate these dynamics and present a strong candidate will be crucial in determining its chances of success.
