A source within the party who did not wish to be identified said the leadership will march from the headquarters of the party to Maitama to formally present their grievances over the irregularities that characterized the election.                      

It would be recalled that INEC announced last week it would hold a supplementary election in some parts of the state on November 30.  The protest will be coming two days before that election, if it holds. 

The INEC announcement further infuriated the stakeholders, leading some of the candidates and political parties to call for a mass boycott of the exercise.
