Speaking with journalists in Okoloma –Afam recently on the choice of Dike and other PDP candidates, Coordinator of the group in the area, Hon. Stanleyson Akaya, said they were convinced that with the achievements of the Nyesom Wike administration, it was only Dike that has the wherewithal to sustain the tempo in the constituency because he had been the man behind good and result-oriented leadership in the area in the past years.
While describing Dike as the most credible candidate to steer the ship of the Federal Constituency after the incumbent, Hon. Barry Mpigi ,appealed to Oyigbo/Tai/Eleme electorate not to make the mistake of voting in someone who might not have the requisite experience to continue from where the incumbent stoped in 2019.
He called on people of the area to support the aspiration of the Oyigbo –politician to occupy the federal slot at the Lower Chambers of the National Assembly come 2019, contending that Dike and other PDP flag bearers deserves to be chosen by the people because of their rich profile and humble disposition.
