Speaking during a meeting with journalists in his hometown of Isu, Onicha Local Government Area, Odii emphasized his determination to win the election and improve governance in the state.

He expressed confidence in his campaign efforts, which include door-to-door outreach and engagement with a substantial social media following of nearly three million.
