We Will Win Next Saturday’s Kogi West Senatorial Rerun Election-PDP

By Bimbo Ogunnaike

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has said that nothing would deter the party from picking the sole ticket in next Saturday’s Kogi West senatorial rerun election.

The party also urged its members and supporters in district to brace up and get ready for a triumphant supplementary election on November 30.

The party, in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Sunday, called on all PDP members, supporters, citizens and voters in Kogi West to be united.

Ologbondiyan urged them to be “ready against any repressive forces that might attempt to forcefully invade any polling unit, disrupt electoral process or alter results as witnessed in the Nov. 16 elections”.

He said that Kogi, and particularly Kogi West, remains home of PDP and the people were not ready to accept any impunity.

”Our party charges the people of Kogi to come prepared to vote, protect their votes and ensure that they stamp their will on the ballot despite the odds.”

The spokesperson cautioned security agents as well as the Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC) officials against subverting the will of the people, adding that such was “capable of attracting dire consequences”.

“The party directs its members to stay united under their leaders in the area as they will continue to be updated of vital information ahead of the election.”

The Kogi State born PDP spokesman said that the PDP was mourning compatriots killed in the November 16, saying that their death would never be in vain.
