While congratulating members of the campaign committee, the Governor commended the Chairman of the party in the state, Barr. Kingsley Esiso for having a small committee at the state level, stating, “what is more important to us is the local government and unit levels; time is short and I am sure the Director-General of the Campaign Council, Hon. Funkekeme Solomon is working very hard for the campaign to start in early January.”
