” Peter Obi will be in Owerri for a Town hall meeting with all the professional bodies in the state. The event will hold at Landmark Event centre at new Owerri.
“We are doing our best to ensure we manage crowd that is why we didn’t give it maximum publicity. You know Obi is the toast of the moment and people are always ready to give him a rousing welcome anywhere he goes and Imo State is totally Obident. That is why we didn’t give this his visit due publicity. If we do there could be a stampede.” A source said.
