“You go back to your State, organize yourselves and invite us for a mega rally. We know funding, organization and commitments are not problems’, what we are looking forward to, is the highly organized Party structure in the State, composed of men and women, especially young men who will go from house to house, to show that APC dominates almost everywhere” he noted
