The leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in Abia,have risen from the just concluded Abia APC presidential/governorship campaign rally to say that the party’s governorship candidate is the only one that can rekindle the will of development in the state.

He added that Ogah ‘s emergence has changed the political equation and dynamics of Abia state in favour of APC.
Hon Acho Obioma the Rally Committee chairman, said Dr Ogah is a man loved and accepted by the generality of Abians, whose name brings hope to the depressed,adding that all APC candidates are men and women of pedigree and integrity with a well articulated vision to reposition Abia.
He urged Abians to vote in government that will pay salaries,create jobs,stop multiple taxation that has paralyzed small businesses as well as create enabling environment for business to thrive.
Also speaking Amb,Chidike Ukauwa said Ogah is the best for APC and the state, adding that his vision for Abia was part of the reasons he stepped down for him, urging Abians to give him their votes
