The INEC had declared the November 21 election inconclusive, saying that the margin in the number of votes garnered by the APC’s candidate, late Abubakar Audu and the runner-up, the candidate of the PDP and the incumbent Governor, Captain Idris Wada, was less than the number of votes cancelled.

Bello is being pushed by some leaders of the party to take the governorship ticket, having taken part in all processes during the primaries of the party.
