The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Comrade Adams Oshomohle urged the people of the South East to support the President to enable him to complete the Second Niger Bridge and other ongoing projects being executed by the Federal Government in the zone.
The Imo State Governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha pledged the support of South East Leaders to the aspiration of President Buhari noting that the people would throw their weight behind him at the polls.
