Residents of Imo State have pledged to re-elect Sen Hope Uzodimma at the November 11 governorship election.
They gave their pledge as the All Progressives Congress (APC) continued on its door-to-door campaign across the state.
The campaign train, which started off last week, has reached many local government areas of the state, including Owerri Municipal, Owerri North, Owerri West, Mbaitoli, Aboh Mbaise, Isu, Njaba, Ideato North, Ideato South, Isiala Mbano, Ehime Mbano, Okigwe, Ihitte/Uboma, Obowo, and Ngor-Okpala, among others.
The campaign is also an avenue for the people of the state to discuss their concerns and expectations directly with Uzodimma’s representatives.
One of the residents of Okpala town, a border town between Imo and Abia states in the Ngor-Okpala local government area, Chief Ugwuh Amadi, said, “For so many years, no political party came here to campaign, we keep hearing excuses that our town is too far for them, but they always want our votes and take them to the capital.
“We are happy today that the APC campaign train and Gov Hope Uzodimma, find our town and our people worthy to come and tell us what he has done and what he will do for our community and the entire Imo State in the next four years. We are happy for him honouring us, and we shall honour him with our votes in the coming governorship election next week.”
Another resident, Benson Ugboji, who resides in Mbaise, described Uzodimma is the candidate to beat in the election.
He said, “None of the candidates has spoken to us the way Hope has done. He has performed well as our governor, and we are going to vote for him again so that he can complete the work he has started.
“Our people here are happy with him; there is no one among his challengers who has shown enough seriousness; we haven’t even heard from them about what they intend to do for Imo, but the Sen Uzodimma has consistently related with us here at the grassroots, and again, he is now connecting with us in another wonderful way.
“Imo residents are resolute in their determination to vote for progress, unity, and a brighter future, as they stand firmly with Gov Hope Uzodimma.”
