Coming from a 2hrs meeting, third in a row, of Coalition of Peter Obi Support groups in the state, Katsina leading OBI-dients are now more optimistic that their efforts at sensitizing and mobilizing for OBI-Daitti/LP Presidency will henceforth yield desired fruit.
At the end of the meeting held over the weekend, where activities of individual groups were assessed viz-a-viz levels of strengths, the coalition unanimously acknowledged that one such factor deterring her progress in the region is finance.
