Hon. Ferere encouraged all residents to vote for PDP candidates on Saturday, July 13th, 2024, highlighting the significance of Dr. Lucky Avweromre’s leadership in facilitating effective governance.
The Director General of the ward Campaign Council, Rt Hon Sunny Apah, and Chairman of the PDP, Jeremi Ward 3, Comrade Onoriode Akpojiyovwi, also urged the community members to support Dr. Lucky Avweromre for Chairman and Hon.
