He said plans are underground to woo the two opposition lawmakers in the state House of Assembly to the APC.

“I want to say that our party has delivered to the people of the state and deserved to be returned in 2019. By then we will take over the whole structure of governance. Let me also assure you that the remaining two members in the assembly would soon join APC” he said
