Imo Residents Shun Sit-At-Home, Turn Out En Masse For Uzodimma’s Inauguration


The residents shunned the sit-at-home in the South-East to grace the event.

Residents of Imo State turned out in their numbers on Monday for the inauguration of Governor Hope Uzodimma for a second term, shunning the sit-at-home order by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Residents, many of them dressed in colourful, and traditional attires were spotted in the streets of the state capital, Owerri for the event billed for the Dan Anyiam Stadium.

Inside the stadium, the citizens waiting for the event to start properly created a carnival-like atmosphere with singing and dancing.

President Bola Tinubu is in Owerri for the inauguration of Governor Uzodimma (of the APC) who was re-elected in an election held on November 11, 2023.

He polled 540,308 votes to defeat Samuel Anyanwu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who secured 71, 503, and Nneji Achonu of the Labour Party (LP), who got 64,081 votes, and others.



The LP and PDP both rejected the results. However, the Governor extended an olive branch to the opposition candidates in his acceptance speech, calling on them to support him for the development of the state.

Ahead of the inauguration, President Tinubu commissioned the newly reconstructed Airport Road in Owerri.

The President, who travelled to Owerri after observing the Armed Forces Remembrance Day in Abuja, was received at the Sam Mbakwe Airport in Owerri by the Governor and other top federal and state officials.


The residents shunned the sit-at-home in the South-East to grace the event.

The President of the Senate Godswill Akpabio and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Abdullahi Ganduje were among those who accompanied the President to Imo State.

Based on comments we read online everyday, many of us outside the southeast always assume APC is not on ground in that region. But the opposite seems to be the reality - - APC controls power in Imo & Ebonyi - - that's 2 out of 5.
To me, this is a gallant feat.

The message of sit at home disobedience is clear to him.
All is not well with the country he hijacked.

Sit at home don tire all of them but no one dares say it. It's not in the character of my kinsmen to admit that we are wrong in public but we can murmur our mistakes and foolhardy among ourselves.

Even without Sit at home, no sane Imolites will leave his workplace, business or even home to attend this unless those being paid to attend.

In terms of Love and Trust give it to Rochas, he was truly loved, crowd choke.
People left whatever they are doing just to see Rochas. He still bleeped up as soon as he left APGA

I guess the governor is doing well. Nobody will troop out for Dapo Abiodun in Ogun State. To say he is a disaster is an understatement. When 2024 rain comes, nothing will be left of most roads in the state particularly in Ifo LGA.

But how did he win a reelection then, if he's that loathed in the state?
