Against the backdrop of the alleged imposition of preferred candidate for the Kogi State governorship ticket of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), the leadership of the party has said that the contest is open to all members of the party desiring to run for the position.

The party also promised to create a level playing field, saying that it has no preferred or anointed candidate as being speculated in some quarters.

The State Chairman of the SDP, Alhaji Mouktar Atimah, who disclosed this in a statement to journalists in Lokoja yesterday, said no candidate would be given an undue advantage over the others in the quest to fly the party’s governorship ticket.
