A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party led by Abdulrahman Mohammed has announced former Cross River State governorship candidate, Sandy Onor, as its consensus presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
The announcement was made on Tuesday by the Chairman of the PDP Presidential Primaries Collation Committee and former Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, during the collation and presentation of the party’s presidential primary results at Wadata Plaza in Abuja.
Members of the collation committee said the process followed consultations and voice votes conducted among party members across the states.
Onor emerged as the sole presidential aspirant after declaring his intention to contest the 2027 presidential election and purchasing his expression of interest and nomination forms earlier this month.
Speaking during the exercise, Ortom stated that the committee consulted party members across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory before arriving at the consensus decision.
He subsequently presented Onor as the PDP faction’s consensus presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
Following the announcement, the party leadership, led by Samuel Anyanwu, presented a certificate of return and the party’s flag to Onor as the faction’s presidential candidate.
Officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission, including National Commissioners Abdullahi Zuru and Rhoda Habor Gumus, were also present to monitor the exercise at the party’s national secretariat.
