The Cross River State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has expressed readiness for Saturday’s rerun in 34 poling units in the state.
The state Publicity Secretary of the party, Mike Osiji, made the declaration while speaking in Calabar on Thursday.
Mr Osiji, who explained that Cross River remained a PDP state, claimed that the All Progressives Congress could not win election in the state without resorting to foul means.

He said, “The APC cannot win elections without using the state apparatus. We are very conversant with their antics and we are prepared to match them in their game. The electorate are with us because they know the hardship imposed on them by the APC in the state and also at the national level.”
The rerun in the units was ordered by the Court of Appeal.
The exercise includes two state constituencies and a federal constituency.
The rerun is scheduled for four Local Government Areas of Obanliku, Yala, Akamkpa and Biase.
The elections will take place in eight polling units in Akamkpa council area, 11 units in Biase, two units in Obanliku and 13 in Yala Local Government Area.
