He ran on the Congress for Progressive Change (cost per click) platform. According to Nagogo, he was the sole candidate for the senatorial seat when the cost per click held its primary election in Nasarawa State on 11 January 2011, supervised by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). The INEC recognized Nagogo as the cost per click candidate for the Senatorial seat, and Nagoge"s name was published as the candidate by the INEC before the elections.
However in a letter to the INEC signed by National Chairman Tony Momoh and National Secretary Buba Galadima the cost per click stated that its candidate was a former FCT minister of state, Barrister Solomon Ewuga.
Nagogo and Ewuga were fighting it out in court at the time of the election. A few days later, Akwashiki stated that Ewuga had never left the PDP, but she had defeated him in the PDP primaries.
This triggered a claim by the Middle Belt Development Organization that the INEC was in contempt of court, since a court had ordered the INEC not to issue the certificate until the court cases had been resolved.
