This is especially as the two big parties; the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are poised to taking over power from the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the state.
Pundits have reached a consensus that the election is a straight battle among the three political parties even though the Young Progressives Party (YPP) and others have also activated their political structures ahead of the election.
Political analysts say the election is critical to the participating parties as it would determine, to a large extent, their performance and add value to their strength in the 2023 general polls.
