In a release immediately after the Supreme Court judgment on Tuesday, he said, “the justices of the Apex Court have laid to rest all the litigations concerning the governorship of our dear state, Imo.”
“Beyond the joy that my party, the APC has recorded yet another valuable victory, I am especially glad that there are no more impediments or distractions to governance in our dear state.”
“I congratulate His Excellency, Senator Hope Uzodinma on his reaffirmation of his mandate by the Supreme Court.”
“I urge the PDP candidate, Chief Emeka Ihedioha and his supporters to take the judgment in their strides and lend hands of support towards the development of the state.”
The former state Commissioner for Lands, who was the governorship candidate of Action Alliance, further sued for peace among Imo people, insisting that the progress of the state should be considered first before anything else.
“The judgment represents the expectation of the mandate of the people. We give God all the glory that at the end of the day, truth came prevailed. We commend the wisdom of the Supreme Court in standing by the truth,” he said.
Gov. Uzodinma reiterated his resolve to take the state to the next level and called on all Imo sons and daughters, both home and abroad, to contribute their quota to the development of the state.
To his opponents, Gov. Uzodinma said: “In this business, you must show the spirit of sportsmanship. It’s not every time you win, it’s not every time you lose. When you win, you carry the losers along; when you lose you follow those that won. My plea to my opponents is to come and bring their ideas, let us team up and create a synergy that will develop Imo State and bring succour to our people.”
