As campaign hits up for the forthcoming November 11, 2023, Imo State Governorship election, the Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic party (PDP), Senator Samuel Anyanwu, has assured the people of Imo State he will restore security of life and property in the state of elected as Governor.
The PDP standard bearer gave the assurance yesterday during a media parley with Imo based newsmen at his residence.
He decried the wanton waste of innocent lives orchestrated by the cluelessness of the present Hope Uzodimma led government, describing it as woeful and should be kicked out.
He attributed the unfortunate and avoidable carnage to the confusion and ignorance of Uzodimma’s government who was wholly not prepared for governance.
Earlier, Senator Samuel, while addressing the cleric also maintained he is contesting the Governorship election to guarantee safety of the Clergy, the entire Imo people and to end insecurity.
He gave this assurance weekend why addressing the clergy and members of the Royal Christian Pentecostal Church Umukehi Orji, in Owerri North local government area during their 2023 Synod/Anniversary as a special guest of honor. Anyanwu further sympathized with them over the deplorable condition of Orji roads, and promised to wipe their tears when elected.
Anyanwu regrets that in the last three years, security of the clergy and Imo people have been badly ignored, leading to the proliferation of kidnapping, armed robbery and killings in the state.
According to him, “it appears that the whole crimes in the state are targeted at the clergy who are innocent of any social injustice. What I promise Imo people is that, our government will nip this ugly trend in the bud if elected the Governor of the state in the November election.”
He said, “Tarry a while and cry no more, you must be part of the victory party and play prominent role in our government. Imo people will be happy again when hunger, sorrow, non payment of salaries, pensions, and killings would stop”
Continuing, the party candidate said, “My covenant with Imo people is to bring peace and ensure that those who abandoned their homes to save their lives due to insecurity are persuaded to return back. Let me assure you that my interest to govern Imo is not to enrich myself and relatives; if I have desire against Ndi-Imo, may the prayers of Imo people concerning this project never work for us; but if my desire is to secure the state from the grip of insecurity and bad governance, we shall win this Governorship election”
Speaking on behalf of the Diocese, His Lordship, Rt Revd F.O Nwaodu expressed confidence that with the level of hunger and discomfort in the state, Imo people would make the best choice in the November 11 Governorship election.
He urged Imo people to remain focused and undeterred in their bid to enthrone good governance in the state, assuring that God has revealed his consent to make Imo State safe by returning peace, unity and love back to the state.
