Okowa, after the screening said he was ready for the polls, saying he has no opponent for the forthcoming PDP governorship primaries.
His words: “Today, I was screened to seek re-election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general elections at the South-South Zonal Secretariat in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
“It was indeed a very fruitful session, and a process we have all gone through in the past. Though we don’t have any opponent, but with the rules of our party, we will have Affirmative Congress, after which the campaigns will start.
“We are very hopeful that we will win in the elections”.
