The Peoples Democratic Party [sic] is one of the two major contemporary political parties in Nigeria,[3] along with its main rival, the All Progressives Congress.[4][3][5]
Its policies generally lie towards the centre-right of the political spectrum.[2] It won every presidential election between 1999 and 2011 and was, until the 2015 elections,[6] the governing party in the Fourth Republic, although sometimes amid a few controversial electoral circumstances.[7][3]
