Wike in an interactive session with journalists said, Ayu cost PDP Presidential loss for not zoning the Party’s Presidential ticket to the South.
According to Wike, the Party Chairman created strategies against zoning in that, the Chairman set up a committee for zoning the Presidential ticket but in the next 24 hours they opened the avenue for any party member from any region to buy the ticket.
