2027: Donald Duke emerges PRP presidential flag bearer
The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) on Tuesday declared a former Governor of Cross River State, Donald Duke, as its presidential flag bearer for the 2027 general election.
The party’s National Chairman, Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, made the announcement at the PRP national secretariat in Abuja.
He said Duke secured the presidential ticket after scoring the highest votes at the primary election.
Baba-Ahmed stated that Duke swept the polls with 6,499 votes, with his closest rival, Kingsley Yakubu, who mounted a nationwide campaign focusing on youth inclusion and economic reform, scoring 2,699 votes.
He said that Dr. Nnaoke Ufere, an academic and policy expert, got third place with 784 votes.
While declaring the official results, he said that the exercise was free, credible, and devoid of any form of bias.
He, however, said that any contestant who felt aggrieved with the electoral process should seek redress before the party’s Appeal Committee.
