Ebube Mbah Calls on Uzodinma to Account for 140 Billion LGA funds.

..Reels out Ihedioha's achievements in the LGAS

This Director General of Ihedioha New Media Center, Prince Ebube Mbah has asked the Government of Senator Hope Uzodinma to give account of over 140 Billion Naira accrued to the 27 Local Government areas of the state in the last 34 Months of his administration.

Mbah, who was a guest on NTA Owerri TV program "60 Minutes Live" made the call while reacting to questions on the preparedness of political parties ahead of the 2023 general and Imo governorship elections.

Prince Ebube Mbah, a member of the People's Democratic Party New Media Committee, stated that under six months of the PDP Government of RT Hon Emeka Ihedioha, the LGA system was revived.

"When my principal, Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha was in office, there was a total revival of the LGAs, they received there money and executed flagship projects. Ihedioha's administration revived Imo Rural Road Maintenance Agency (IRROMA), LGAs procured one motor grader and one payloader per local Government for grading of Rural roads, Clock-In technology systems were introduced to checkmate laxity of workers, vehicles were purchased for principal officers of the LGAS, awareded the construction of Secretariat and Stadia to explore the untapped sporting skills in the rural areas, and even invested in what people call "stomach infrastructure".. today, those graders are no where to be found.. what has Uzodinma done with local Government funds in the last 34 Months..." Mbah queried.

The State Publicity Secretary of APC, Mr Cajetan Duke, who spoke on the side of the government, stated that with the Construction of Owerri-Orlu and Owerri-Okigwe roads, Gov Uzodinma has scored a passmark to deserve re-election. He however said the Uzodinma's administration is "conservative" in reeling out their numerous achievements to the public.

In the a swift response, Prince Ebube Mbah dismissed the credit of Owerri-Orlu and Owerri-Okigwe roads as the only major achievements of the Uzodinma's administration in 34 months.

"When they talk about Owerri-Orlu and Owerri-Okigwe roads, what they refused to tell us is that 55 Billion Naira was spent on 92 kilometres of roads, what this means is that they spent almost 600 Million Naira for one kilometre, an outrageous sum. And this is the only thing they can boast of in 34 months. Under six months, Gov Ihedioha awarded over 35 critical roads across the state, he also awarded 400 kilometres worth of RAMP roads across the 27 Local Government areas. It is shameful that Uzodinma is struggling to state his achievements in 34 Months with the FAAC allocation, Oil Derivatives, IGR, LGA funds and the heavy Debt profile he is leaving behind even as the 3R regime has started to wind down" Ebube Mbah Concluded.

Like seriously

APGA please give us somebody ...yes ... ihedioha is better than Hope by a million mile but I think being arguably the most educated state we can do far better than ihedioha Vs Hope (* which ihedioha would beat Hope even in Hope's ward )

We need a 21st century governor ... without having a governor we are the 4th largest economy in Nigeria ....imagine what would happen if we have a Peter obi like governor for 8 years


APGA give us a 3rd option ... someone young, exposed , successful with proven track record , with proven love and affection for our dear state

Imo is rich with potential the potential is obvious
