He also called on Nigerians to support President Tinubu, the APC, and its Renewed Hope Agenda, stressing that the current administration is focused on building a lasting legacy for future generations.
The invitation to Governor Otti comes as the APC seeks growth and unity in Abia State. The party’s commitment to collective leadership and strengthening its regional presence means that Otti’s potential defection could significantly impact the state’s political landscape.
