The governor-elect of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma, has issued an order freezing all bank accounts belonging to the state government with effect from January 14, 2020.

According to an ‘Order of Post No Debit’ issued by Director-General, Hope Uzodinma’s Campaign Organisation, Chief Cosmas Iwu, to all financial institutions and the Accountant-General of Imo State, no bank is to honour any transaction from the government of Chief Emeka Ihedioha or his officials.

The document, which was issued on January 14, 2020, titled ‘Order of Post No Debit on all accounts of Imo State Government Effective Immediately 14th January 2020’, reads:

“Following the Supreme Court judgment of 14th January 2020, I am directed by His Excellency, Senator Hope Uzodinma to take this to your authority/instruction to place a Post No Debit (PND) order on all accounts of the Imo State Government maintained in your various institutions.

“You are by this letter, directed to comply and await further instructions from the office of His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Imo State.”

Senator Uzodinma was yesterday declared the dully-elected governor of Imo State following a Supreme Court judgment which sacked the administration of Chief Emeka Ihedioha.

His first order

For real ?

What d haste mr hope? Accord d ex governor some respect pls. Wont he need to pay himself january salary or other allowances before he finally leaves?

Na so those ones appointed by Ihedioha go take loss their job

I feel their pain

Nigerian politicians.
It's always about the money. First thing they go for is always the money.

He hasn't even looked at what is on ground project wise for the people. It's how to quickly secure the accounts first.

This singular action just tells you how the next few years are going to be. All the systems and procedures put in place by the outgoing person will be jetissoned. Na money first.

We don't have a government, just a bunch of very irresponsible, power drunk, greedy people.

Standing order.

I perceive he wants to block looting

He hasnt been sworn in yet, he is already after money

E don set.. Mbaka's boy don start

On what authority is he issuing this order?

Because if we have laws in this country, Ihedioha is still Gov until Hope takes oath of office.

And until Hope takes oath of office, any order he is issuing is ultra vires.

See stupidity in full display o!
