Summary \ conclusion

From the above analysis and data collected, the researcher concludes that at this stage.

👉 Most aspirants are yet to unveil their blue prints and campaign strategies, which will lead to alignments and realignments, so we can not say what the nature of the contest will look like weather its going to be inter ethnic group or inter religious.
👉 But at the moments base on the tools use to judge the popularity of candidates, it is clear that in APC, one of the following people stance a greater chance,

👍PROF. S. G. Tyoden
👍Dr. Patrick Dakum
👍Chief letep Dabang.

While in PDP.

👍Bar. Caleb Mutfwang
👍Dr James Dalok
👍Hon. David Paradang.

👉 To make comments on the strength of political parties, The both parties are strong, thou for the major opposition to give a good fight, it will depend largely on the Jagaban of the party in the state, (JD Jang) , coming in agreement with the leader of the party (J. T. Usaini) to decides who clinch the ticket.
The APC on the other hand is yet to conduct her congress which will lead to breakups and take a little time for settlement, until then, the party is seating on a time bomb.
👉The decision of running mate to a large extend affects the outcome of secondary election.
👉 Finally, This analysis is just for now and might not be valid when full campaign activities unveil, that is why the researcher always used the statement For now In his work.
👉 The researcher does not look down on any candidate as he only gave conclusion base on the data received. The researcher try by all means not to allow self, tribe or religion beclouded his judgment during the ANALYSIS.
👉 Intending Aspirants or their Loyalist who did not met up the instruments use for assessment of candidates and are necessary for success in this race should use this research work and wake up instead of calling the researcher names and should not crucify the researcher.
👉The research work is open for criticism and further studies.

Limitations of the Study

❌A good number of respondents feel is too early to start making this analysis and hence did not make any comments.
❌This research work might not forecast what will actually happen when the real business’s of give and take, reconciliation and conflicts, break outs and meager starts unveiling themselves across inter and intra party.
❌ The state at the time of this pandemic is not thinking in the line of who becomes what, the mind of the people is occupy with the fight against COVID 19 Pandemic and hunger.
❌This research work might only end on the social media.
