Special Adviser to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa on Local Government Affairs, Hon. Dr. Joseph Otirhue has inaugurated different groups set up by him on the platform of the PDP to ensure total victory for all PDP candidates from national to the state, in the 2019 election.

There is no safety and security anymore. People no longer sleep with their eyes close. And so, come 2019, APC should be swept out of power.
