Tinubu speaks to private sector stakeholders, others, Thursday in Imo - Uzodimma
...Governor says Imo, classical example of APC as a winning team
Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will, Thursday, be in Owerri the Imo State capital, to speak to an audience of private sector drivers, comprising investors, manufacturers, traders among others, preparatory to his main campaign in the State in the coming days.
Governor Hope Uzodimma made the disclosure, Wednesday, while speaking with the media on arrival at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport, Owerri, from the APC Presidential Campaign flag-off in Jos Plateau State, Tuesday.
The Governor who is also the APC Coordinator for South East Presidential Campaign Council had reiterated his call on the Igbo in Jos to be part of the government of Nigeria at the centre by keying into the agenda of the APC which he said is already a success story in Imo.
"The only way to be part of Nigeria is being part of the government at the centre and the government at the centre is controlled by APC," he maintained.
Governor Uzodimma said that he has not seen any calculation in the population of over 200 million people in Nigeria that will "whisk-off APC," noting that "in Imo State there are things to show why all and sundry should encourage APC."
"And you don’t change the winning team as APC is wining in Imo State and other States of the Federation so it should continue," he insists.
Earlier, the Governor had described the APC outing in Jos as "a welcome development that recorded a very huge success where the national leadership of APC, starting with President Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, all the progressives Governors and all national leaders were present."
He said "the flag-off is a symbolic event because it now encourages other States to replicate what happened in Jos in their States."
Furthermore, Governor Uzodimma explained that Imo State will tomorrow, Thursday, November 17, 2022 hold a town hall meeting where Tinubu will be present to "speak to the private sector, listen to them, hear some of the challenges they have been confronted with in the course of doing their businesses and see whether they are provided in his manifesto and if not, make the final amendment to the manifesto."
The Governor also said tentatively on Monday, November 21, 2022, APC will be holding a State campaign rally similar to what happened in Jos on Tuesday where all members of the Party in Imo State will come out to receive the presidential candidate of APC who will also speak to the larger audience at the venue.
He therefore encouraged all APC members to be part of the above programmes.

Throwback to 2017 and Uchenna Kanu's presentation about her home town when she was at South Eastern University in the United States. She earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Sports Management at the university and she was the all time highest goal scorer for their football team.
Super Falcons striker Uchenna Kanu provided an assist to help Tigres UANL Femenil to a 2-0 victory over Club America Femenil in the Liga MX Femenil Apertura championship. She pounced on a loose ball in the 49th minute and sent in a cross which was fired into the net by Cruz to give Tigres its second goal.
Kanu had to be taken off in the first leg of the final as part of a concussion protocol due to a clash of heads with an America player. However, she promised her fans (from her hospital bed) that she would be back in time for the second leg and she did just that and made an impact on the game.
She had moved to Mexico from Sweden in January this year and set a record as the first African to score a hat trick in the Mexican league.
Highlights (Kanu's assist is in the 6:49th minute of the video)
A person can be a good player and also be a successful coach (Beckenbauer, Zidane, etc); a person can be a relatively unknown player and be a successful coach (Mourinho, Wenger, Ferguson) and a person can be a good and famous player and also be an unsuccessful coach. It's difficult to say how successful a player will be as a coach until you actually see them coach a team.
