Though twenty-four (24) political parties and candidates are registered for the Kogi governorship election, two parties, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have been identified by political analysts as the main contenders for the election.


Incumbent governor of the state, Yahaya Bello, is seeking a second term in office in the platform of the APC while Musa Wada of the PDP is hoping to unseat him as State’s number one citizen.
