“While releasing its zoning formula, the PDP said:”Without prejudice to the rights of other members from the south, we hereby zone our presidential ticket to the north”

“Note: Without prejudice!!That means other interested members of the party from other zones who feel dissatisfied with the zoning formula or have an ambition to pursue can still do so hence Fayose in his declaration letter said “Without Prejudice to the party,” he posted.

The governor added that ” our aggrieved man is a lawyer and I expected him to understand simple legal term.
