It said they have, therefore, resolved to endorse Ihedioha of the PDP as the candidate of the choice of Imo to be voted for at the governorship election on March 9.“Finally, we the members of this council drawn from the three geo-political zones of the state, individually and collectively append our signatures as evidence of our agreement to the resolutions of this communiqué which endorsed Ihedioha as the governorship candidate to be voted into office come March 9, 2019”.
