The campaign organization of Prof Gregory Ibe, the All Progressives Grand Alliance governorship candidate for Abia state has rolled out its time table for campaign rally. The rally will cover all the 17 LGAs in the state. The time table shows that all candidates of APGA in the state vying for state and national positions in the February 25 and March 11 elections and all stakeholders are to participate fully in the rallies. Prof Greg Ibe, the governorship candidate would be unveiled on this Tuesday as the campaign council flags off the rally at Ohafia in Abia North LGA.

The council also use the rally to debunk the propaganda by the opposition in the state making the rounds that the APGA candidate is incapacitated physically.

A spokesman of the campaign council Hon. John Nwokocha, said the claim by the opposition about the health of Greg Ibe is wicked, malicious and a lie from the pit of hell. Nwokocha stated, “Greg Ibe is physically fit, mentally sound and remains the most treasured candidate by Abians.” “Truth be told, our candidate, Prof Grg Ibe is hale and hearty. He is gregarious truly living his name, vibrant and continues to attend to programmes and needs of his teaming supporters”, Nwokocha said. “Our candidate is going to emerge as the greatest shocker to the opposition come March 11”, he added.
