The Anambra State Coordinator of the group, Chief Engr Fidelis Ochili, who made the position of the group known during a stakeholder meeting held at Prince Paradise hotel Awka, the Anambra State capital on Wednesday, noted that the resolve of the group was predicated on the superlative performance of the duo of the PDP candidate and his running mate noting that it could only be beneficial for the people of the south-east to join millions of other regions across the nation in
drumming support for them.
