Speaking to newsmen when the campaign train stormed Oji Urban ward 4 on Tuesday September 10, Hon. John Okefi expressed optimism that PDP is the party to beat in the whole of Oji River local government.
He said in addition to the vigorous campaigns, the administration of Governor Peter Mbah is currently putting projects on ground in Oji River local government, which is endearing their people to love hin the more and vote for PDP.
