Barr. Mrs. Chioma Uzodimma, First Lady of Imo State, echoed her husband’s sentiments, expressing her gratitude, “I extend a warm welcome to our distinguished guest, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu. Your presence here today exemplifies the unity of our great nation. As the First Lady of Imo State, I stand proudly beside my husband, Governor Hope Uzodimma, in our unwavering dedication to the welfare and empowerment of women in our state. Together, we will continue to champion the cause of our women.”
Sen. Oluremi Tinubu took the stage, acknowledging the warm reception with deep appreciation. “I am deeply honored to be here in Imo State, among the vibrant and resilient people of this great state,” she began. “The Women Campaign rally is a testament to the overwhelming support that Governor Uzodimma enjoys among the women of the state. The crowd is massive, just like the last time I visited, and I can see happiness on the faces of our women. I appreciate the warm welcome and assure you that the federal government is committed to supporting Imo State’s development and the empowerment of its women. November’s gubernatorial election is indeed a walkover for Governor Uzodimma, considering the immense support he enjoys. Together, we will build a better Nigeria, and on behalf of my husband, the President, let me assure you that November’s election will be the freest, fairest, and most credible election in Imo State’s history.”
Hon. MacDonald Ebere, PhD, State Party Chairman of Imo APC, emphasized the significance of unity within the women of the state. He highlighted the importance of the Shared Prosperity administration of Dist. Sen. Hope Uzodimma in addressing various political and developmental issues. He seized the opportunity to encourage Imo women to come out in large numbers on November 11 and vote overwhelmingly for Dist. Sen. Hope Uzodimma, ensuring that the state’s infrastructural transformations continue without hindrance.
He also noted that with Governor Hope Uzodimma’s choice of a female deputy in the person of Lady Chinyere Ekomaru, women will enjoy increased inclusivity in the state’s political discourse during the Governor’s second term in office.
The Imo Women Campaign Rally, marked by these impassioned speeches and the presence of distinguished leaders, served as a historic occasion in the state’s history. It not only fostered unity and collaboration but also paved the way for a brighter future for Imo State and Nigeria as a whole.
This morning, 2Baba posted “Help Me” on his Instagram stories, but less than 20 minutes later, the message vanished.
For the past few days, his relationship with his current wife, Senator Natasha Osawaru, has been under serious scrutiny, as a series of public incidents have surfaced and fuelled widespread speculation about the state of their marriage.
His cry for help should not be taken lightly. But who will answer him?
Will it be his family, his close friends, or the entertainment industry that has benefited from his legendary career?
At this point, one thing is clear. The music icon seems to be calling for real support and those around him cannot afford to look away.

BREAKING: Unknown Gunmen Attack Gov. Otti’s Advance Team In Imo, As Scores Were Kidnapped From A Bus Along Owerri-Road Road
An advance team of Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, escaped unhurt after unidentified gunmen opened fire on their vehicle in the early hours of Tuesday, December 2, 2025, along the Umuowa–Ihite axis in Imo State.
The three-member team was en route to Sam Mbakwe Cargo Airport, Owerri, when the attack occurred shortly before the airport junction.
In a statement electronically signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Ukoha Njoku Ukoha, the Abia Government clarified that Governor Otti’s main convoy was not involved in the incident and was nowhere near the location at the time.
“The convoy of His Excellency, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, was not attacked. No member of the advance team or any other person sustained injury, and no life was lost,” the statement stressed, urging the public to disregard rumours suggesting otherwise.
It was learned that Security agencies have been notified, and investigations are underway to identify and apprehend the assailants.
Meanwhile, a commercial bus plying along Owerri -Aba road towards the Ngor Okpala axis was attacked Monday and scores of passengers were feared kidnapped by yet-to-identify gunmen.
The convoy of former Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, was attacked by gunmen in Umuoji, Idemili North Local Government Area of Anambra State.
Ngige who confirmed the incident to newsmen, stated that he was not in the convoy when the attack occurred. He mentioned that several people were shot and injured.
“I was not in the convoy. I’m still alive and well. Those hoodlums have started again. I came to my state to relax, but what happened is unfortunate. I will go back to Abuja. But I assure those who did this, they will not go unpunished.” he said
The vehicles were reportedly returning from a mechanic workshop in Nkpor when the gunmen struck along the busy Umuoji–Nkpor Road leading to Alor, Ngige’s hometown.
According to Mr. Fred Chukwulobelu, Ngige’s former Special Adviser on Media, a policeman in the pilot car was shot, and the attackers, dressed in police and army uniforms, took away his gun and uniform.
He also confirmed that a woman filming the incident was fatally shot. He added that a shop owner who rushed out to see what was happening was also shot; he lost significant blood and is scheduled for surgery, but is expected to recover fully.
The pilot car was riddled with bullets, while the wounded escort leader has undergone surgery and is also expected to recover.
Meanwhile, the Anambra State Police Command said it has launched a state-wide manhunt for the perpetrators.
