Ahead of the 2023 general election, Hope Uzodinma, the Imo State Governor, has said there are many loyal members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, who are ‘Obedient’ to the party.
It was also reported that Uzodinma, during an interview with Channels TV on Tuesday, said he doesn’t want to join issues with the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
According to the Governor, he is more concerned about campaigning for the APC presidential flagbearer, Bola Tinubu, in the South East.
He added that reasonable minds in Imo State would vote for the APC considering the dividends of democracy delivered to them.
Uzodinma said: “I am a politician and my party is APC and I have my candidate in the party. And I know we are consulting and speaking to our people to vote for our candidate.
“I am concerned with campaigning for my party. I don’t want to join issues with Peter Obi, whom you know is not a member of my party. But I know members of APC are obedient to APC.
“I am very confident that the reasonable minds in Imo State will vote for my party. In 2021, I came here as a governor, 99% of our major roads were not passable. Today the major economic roads in Imo State have been managed in a very first-class manner that even the opposition party members are commending my effort.
“From 1999 to date, the members of Imo House of Assembly have no place in the state to sit. They were attached to one local government secretariat here in Owerri. The Imo House of Assembly building that was abandoned for many years has just been rehabilitated.”
