The process for the selection the Governor said will be, each of the 21 LGAs in the State should meet and select their best 15, from which he will appoint political Office holders. Those to be selected he emphasised, should include party loyalists who work tirelessly for PDP and those who join PDP from other parties and helped the Party wins the 2019 election.
