A two time governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Eyitayo Jegede (SAN) has withdrawn from the governorship race.
Jegede was the candidate of the party in 2016 and 2020. He lost to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), with speculations that he might contest for the third time.
Addressing party members in Akure on Thursday, Jegede said that although, the constitution of the PDP is silent on zoning, he asked his supporters to remain and work for the progress of the party for future elections.
