He reminded the state government of the constitutional right to vote and be voted for during election, as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria.
He said the APC would challenge anyone who disenfranchised the electorate from voting.
Agballa noted that the party would mobilise electorate in the state to go and vote for the party in the election, in order to correct political imbalance in the state.
Agballa noted that the people of the state were not only tired of the political monopoly but were also frustrated as they were not given the opportunity to participate to the development of the state.
