Mr Nzeribe said that Mr Okere, who represents Owerri Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, would be assisted by Mathew Nwogu, Chikwem Onuoha and Chika Mmadumere who would all serve as the deputy chairmen.

He said that the constitution of the campaign council was to strategise for the governorship election.

“Our campaign is in full gear and we are very prepared to take back Imo, hence we are inaugurating our campaign council made up of eminent Imolites and great party men,’ he said.
