The leader of the technical committee for the Atiku Abubakar presidential campaign, Raymond Dokpesi, has solicited support for a one-term presidency of Atiku Abubakar.
He said if Abubakar is elected for a single term of four years, it will pave way for the South-East, a region dominated by the Igbos, to produce the president in 2027.
Dokpesi, who stated this yesterday, while speaking in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, maintained that Abubakar, who hails from the North-East geo-political zone, is the right person to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari.
Chief Dokpesi was at the State secretariat of the People Democratic Party, (PDP), for consultations with the party leaders in the State.
He revealed that the PDP zoning arrangement was not honoured during the 2015 presidential election. Consequently, the party went into the election with a divided house which it lost.
He argued that the PDP has to give the North another chance to complete its fours years in the presidency in order to wrestle power from the APC in 2023.
He assured that the PDP will zone the presidency to the South-East and ensure that the zone produces the president in 2027.
The PDP chairman in the State, Chief Alwell Asiforo, assured the team that the party was open to listening to all those with aspirations who visits the State for consultation.
