“So I am not surprised that they are looking for people in the PDP to come and contest the presidential ticket in their party.
“It shows clearly that they are aware that in their party, they don’t have anybody that can win the next presidential election.''

Governor Okowa stated this on Wednesday, 31 when the PDP flagged off its ward to ward campaign rally for the Saturday, April 10 state House of Assembly bye-election for Isoko North local government area of the state.
