He urged the Anambra people to vote massively for the PDP to turn things around in the state.

He lauded the spirit of reconciliation and better commitment to the campaign and called for more vigorous house-to-house electioneering ahead of the polls.

He added:

“We had an opportunity in Edo state and we took it and I believe it's that same opportunity we have in Anambra and we may not have a better chance than now so we must take it back.”

Earlier, Ozigbo had said that he was in Delta to present the defecting members of APGA to the governor who is a national leader of the party.
