Jimi Agbaje has withdrawn from the race to become the national chairman of the PDP.
He made the announcement on social media a few hours before the commencement of the national convention to elect new leaders for the PDP.
He said the PDP had from inception adopted the principle of zoning offices among the country’s geo-political zones.
“In line with such zoning and other parameters I have at different fora, expressed my strong belief that the next National Chairman of our great party should come from the South West,” he said.
He also said he was however, convinced that “with 7 out of all 9 aspirants coming from the South West, this multiplicity of co tenders will work to the detriment of our zone when it comes to voting”.
