While charging members of the People’s Democratic Party, (PDP) in the state especially Gboko to remain resolute and work for the success of the party in the forthcoming elections, the Governor expressed optimism that the PDP will take over power in 2023 and make things better for the country.

The governor maintained that the people of Gboko have no reason to fraternize with any political party apart from the PDP, stressing that with their son, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu as leader of the party in the country, they should support him to succeed.
