Imo indigenes in diaspora have expressed their commitment to work towards the re-election of Governor Ikedi Ohakim as the Governor of Imo state for a 2nd term.
The Imo indigenes from different walks of life in Europe and America made their position known when they called on the Director of Communications, Ohakim 2011 Campaign Organization, Sir Angus Oguike.
