ABUJA-The Peoples Democratic Party,  PDP, has raised fears over an alleged plot to shortchange it in Tafawa Balewa Local Government, in the Bauchi state governorship supplementary elections, slated for March 23.

This was disclosed on Friday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary,  Kola Ologbondiyan at a press briefing in Abuja. 

According to him,  the All Progressives Congress,  APC,  working in sync with the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has perfected plans to deny its candidate,  Senator Bala Mohammed of victory,  stressing however that the people of Bauchi state have resolved to resist  any attempt to compromise the supplementary polls.
