At a rally held to receive the defectors at Saint Mary Primary school ground in Orlu town, the chairman of the PDP in the state, Mr Nnamdi Anyahie and other stalwarts of the party said the development was an indicator that "Imo State is predominantly a PDP state".

They believe the defection would also boost the morale of the party in winning elections at all levels in the state come February.

Mr Anyahie maintained that the PDP in the state had put all strategies in place to claim the Governorship seat in the state in the coming elections.

"That is the main reason why members of other parties are identifying with the PDP," he said.

The incumbent Governor of the state, Rochas Okorocha, is a member of the All Progressives Congress but was elected on the platform of the APGA. He had already started a statewide campaign to seek indigenes support in the governorship election.

He defected to the APC in 2013 along with some other governors that were members of the Peoples Democratic Party.

At a campaign rally on Saturday Governor Okorocha maintained that he remained a candidate to beat in the governorship election that will hold in February, as his good record of performance in the last three and a half years remained a landmark achievement in the history of governance in the state.

He promised that if elected into office for the second time, apart from consolidating the existing programmes, he would provide more industries, factories and job opportunities for the people of the state.
