The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked its members to work hard to win the November 30, supplementary election for Kogi West senatorial zone.
The main opposition party also expressed concerns that President Muhammadu Buhari was more interested in the continuation of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in office than he was in the survival of democracy in the country.

A statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, last night clarified that it was not boycotting the supplementary election. Rather, it charged its members and supporters in Kogi West to brace up and get ready for a triumphant extra poll.
It called on all its members, supporters, citizens and voters in Kogi West to unite in readiness against any repressive forces that might attempt to forcefully invade any polling unit to disrupt electoral process or alter results as witnessed in the November 16 elections.
The PDP noted that Kogi State and particularly Kogi West, remains its home and the people are not ready to stomach the kind of impunity exhibited by the APC in the November 16 polls.
It said: “Our party, therefore, charges the people of Kogi State to come prepared to vote, protect their votes and ensure that they stamp their will on the ballot despite the odds.
“The PDP cautions security agents as well as officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) not to pander to repressive forcers, who seek to subvert the will of the people, as such is capable of attracting dire consequences.”
The party directed its members to stay united under their leaders in the area, as they would continue to be updated of vital information ahead of the election.
The INEC had last week fixed next Saturday for the supplementary poll to conclude the November 16 senatorial election in the district, which the commission had declared inconclusive.
But the PDP had said it had not only lost interest in the electoral umpire’s ability to be fair to all parties, but also rejected the scheduled supplementary election.
