THE Peoples Democratic Party, PDP may have survived its worst fears of a public backlash during the last round of elections.

The latest crisis hitting the party arose from the zoning of positions after its victories in the presidential and National Assembly elections.

This is the feeling even in states where some PDP chieftains failed to deliver the presidential polls in favour of their party.
