“We are highly honoured by the visit of a great personality to interface with the party on his aspiration. What makes a party strong is when great men like Hon Andrew Igban contest.

I have that strong belief that after the primaries, the party will come out stronger. This is just the beginning of several politicking in the year”.

“PDP will win all the elective positions in Warri South-West. I urge all PDP supporters and faithful to match on collectively including at the federal level as Nigerians are tired of APC miss rule,” he stated.
