Speaking on behalf of Imo youths on Equity in Owerri, Dr Ugwo called on Chief Ohakim to
check his conscience if really is right and justifiable in the eyes of mankind for him to talk of Governorship seat after Seventeen good years he left office, he questioned what he left in Government House after he allegedly mismanaged power given to himbin2007.

 

His words; “I personally ask him of what moral social and political justification to claim Governorship come 2028. The same power giving to him in 2007, he didn’t know how he manage it until it eroded him in 2011.

We continue to ask a simple question to my people from Okigwe Zone of what moral, social and political justification do they have to contest Imo Governorship Seat come 2028”

According to him; Imo Youths on Equity, hereby states clearly that the decisions of the Imo Elders Council on Charter of Equity is Sacrosanct and they will massively draw grassroots support for Equity to prevail come 2028.

He noted that the former governor has seen that is not easy to get power, saying; he has been contesting and be loosing why now and of what magic is he anticipating come 2027.

His words; “even if Governor Uzodinma is his blood brother, let me remind him that Okigwe Zone rejected him since 2011 and will continued to reject him as he has been contesting”

He called on Chief Ohakim not to allow miscreants and political Jobbers to deceive him come 2028.

Alleging that the former governor is out for a political fight, a revenge mission and not for governance, he admonished him to think of peace and unity of Imo State, saying; ‘a word is enough for the wise, No more no less Owerri zone is ripe to produce Governor come 2027’

He seized the opportunity provided by the media chat to commend a grate and dynamic Leader from Owerri Zone Prince Charles Amadi (Chavon) for his emphatic analysis on zoning, his stand in 2015 Governorship Election, his stand come 2027 Imo Guber. and for standing firm on the decisions of Imo Council of Elders.

He States that Imo Youths on Equity are glad to see someone like him standing firm for Owerri Zone come 2027, He is a man of few words and Imo youths on Equity will stand solidly behind him. We equally urge other leaders to emulate him to stand on the decisions of the Imo Elders Council for power Rotation, starting from Owerri zone come 2027.

 

Expressing gratitude to Prince Amadi for his efforts towards Imo State Governor of Owerri Zone Extraction, Dr Ugwo maintained that Imo Youths on Equity believes in him as he has proven to be a dynamic leader with Character, Competency, credibility and Capacity.

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has ordered an end to the bloodshed in the state.

Adeleke’s directive followed the breakout of deadly violence that erupted in local government secretariats across the state.

The governor confirmed that five members of the Peoples Democratic Party were killed during the crisis, while several others were injured.

On Monday, violence broke out when loyalists of the All Progressives Congress attempted to reinstate their local government chairmen, who were removed by a court ruling in 2022.

The opposition by PDP supporters led to chaos and a violent outbreak.

In the course of the violence, the reinstated chairman of Irewole Local Government Area, Mr. Remi Abass, was killed.

Reacting via a statement issued by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, Adeleke accused the APC of trying to take over the local governments illegally.

He said: “PDP lost five members, with several others wounded.

“Two were killed in Iragbiji, Boripe Local Government. Another two died in Ola Oluwa Local Government, and one was killed in Ikire. This bloodshed must stop.”

Adeleke directed residents and politicians to stay away from the local government secretariats as a way to prevent violence.

He added: “Governor Adeleke has directed all Osun residents to avoid the LG secretariats to prevent more violence and protect public property.

“Since the local government workers are on strike, security agencies will take full control of the secretariats.”
