Then president Buhari visited Gov Hope Uzodinma too many times in Owerri, more than he visited any other governor in Nigeria.
Gov Hope Uzodinma visited Buhari in Aso Rock more than any other governor in Nigeria visited Buhari.
But under gov Uzodinma's watch, his Orueast\Orsu \Orlu federal Constituency is reduced to nothingness, with no government development in 4 years; sit at home that stopped in other places then continued in Orlu constituency. Uzodinma was uprooting government establishments in his federal constituency to Owerri federal constituency. Uzodinma's Ebubeagu squad have been using Orlu side for practicals in killing and burning businesses.

There are 2 people beefing. 1 Is a guy named Desmond Nedu Alaegbu, and the other one In Chinonso (can't remember last name). They make several accounts when one account is ban and attack all Igbo threads. They are both from Anambra. There's no beef, those two are just disturbed and have limited life prospects.

Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has announced a new minimum wage of N40,000 for workers in the state to ease the pains caused by the removal of fuel subsidy.

The governor also announced N5 billion revolving loan for farmers, as well as free transportation and medical care for civil servants.

Mr Uzodimma made the announcement during a special meeting with critical Imo stakeholders, on Saturday in Owerri.

The governor said the free transportation, feeding and medical care were for civil servants.

He said other palliatives include the establishment of marketing and commodity boards, mass housing and recruitment of more teachers.

The Imo State Council of Elders led by a traditional ruler who is also the Obi of Obinugwu, Eze Cletus Ilomuanya, had sometime last year, formulated and presented a document which the Council tagged as “Imo Charter of Equity” to the governor of the state, Sen. Hope Uzodimma. The leitmotif of the document is all about the rotation of the governorship seat among the three senatorial districts of the state.


The document, which apparently became an executive bill, was sent to the state House of Assembly. It has been reportedly passed into law as one of the laws of the state. I have not had the privilege of going through the document to understand when the “charter of equity law” is supposed to take effect.


However it has been widely reported that framers of the “Charter of Equity Law” had designed it in such a manner that the incumbent Governor Uzodimma should be allowed to have a second term. When he finishes his tenure in 2027, the seat should shift to the Owerri zone for its own eight years.

After Owerri zone, it should shift to Okigwe zone for another eight years. The framers of the law apparently meant well for the state. They desired for a just, fair and equitable state where one zone should not dominate others in producing the governor.

Rotation of the governorship seat is justifiable but the credibility of the candidates and the constitution of Nigeria take precedence over the Charter

The state has 27 LGAs. Whereas Orlu zone has 12 LGAs, Owerri and Okigwe zones have nine and six LGAs respectively. Since the advent of the Fourth Republic civilian rule, Orlu zone has dominated the seat with a lion’s share of 20 years by the end of the first term of the current administration. Therefore, it’s equitable, fair and just that the seat should move to another zone by the end of Uzodimma’s current administration.

Upper Iweka is safer than Owerri that’s why most imo indigenes prefer to live in Onitsha
