…Calls for Grassroot Support in Upcoming Gubernatorial Election

Date: June 4, 2023

In a strategic move to secure grassroot support for Imo State Governor, Dist.Sen Hope Uzodimma in the upcoming November 11, 2023 general elections, the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State, Hon. MacDonald Ebere, PhD held a highly interactive session with members of the socio-political group known as HOPISM. The meeting took place today in Owerri Municipal Council, and it focused on rallying the support of the grassroot movement for the re-election of the incumbent State Governor.

 

HOPISM, a powerful socio-political group in Owerri Municipal Council, was formed by the State Party Chairman himself and boasts an impressive membership count . This group played a pivotal role in securing Governor Uzodimma’s victory during his first election, and they are now determined to deliver another resounding success in the upcoming polls.

During the interactive session, Hon. Ebere passionately urged the HOPISM members to exhibit the tenacity for which they have become renowned. He emphasized the importance of their active involvement in the political process, stressing that their continued support and dedication are crucial to ensuring victory in the upcoming election.

 

Hon. MacDonald also took the opportunity to provide the members with valuable election advice and strategies. He encouraged them to engage in effective door-to-door drives, mobilize their communities, and actively participate in voter education initiatives. Additionally, he highlighted the significance of unity within the party and urged the HOPISM members to work closely with other APC supporters across the Municipality. He encouraged them to remain steadfast in their support for the State Governor and maintain their unity and solidarity.

 

Several HOPISM members who were given the opportunity to speak during the session, expressed their unwavering support for the leadership dexterity displayed by Hon. Ebere since his assumption of office as Imo APC Chairman . They commended his commitment to the party’s values and his ability to inspire others. Additionally, they promised to actively promote the achievements of Governor Uzodimma, highlighting the positive impact his administration had on the development of Imo State.

As a testament to the political dedication demonstrated by HOPISM, the members have reaped significant rewards from the government through the instrumentality of Hon. MacDonald Ebere . Various empowerment schemes implemented by Governor Uzodimma’s administration have greatly benefited the movement’s members. These initiatives include receiving empowerment grants, securing government appointments for some members, facilitating the admission of some members’ children into tertiary institutions, and the recent inclusion of committed members in a pilgrimage to Israel as part of a 1,000-person delegation. Furthermore, HOPISM members have enjoyed access to free health treatments and surgeries for various ailments provided by the government .

With HOPISM’s strong membership base and their unwavering commitment to the State Governor and Imo APC’s leadership, the party aims to build on their previous successes and secure another electoral triumph in Imo State.

President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, announced plans to modify the constitution to implement the Supreme Court judgment on local government autonomy.

Akpabio made this statement in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State capital, while receiving APC members loyal to Senator John James Akpanudoedehe.

“I thank President Bola Tinubu for seeking to grant local governments autonomy through the Supreme Court,” Akpabio said. “Under my leadership, the Senate will adjust the constitution to ensure the judgment is fully enforced without loopholes for exploitation.”

Akpabio reflected on his journey with the APC, noting that before joining in 2018, the party hadn’t won any councillorship seats in the state. He expressed gratitude for becoming Senate President with President Tinubu’s support.

“Change is life’s only constant,” Akpabio said. “I joined APC to connect with the center, and now I’m Senate President. God elevated me because I meant well for our people.”

Welcoming back APC members who never left the party, Akpabio prayed, “May God bless you and grant your progressive desires.”

Eteubong Alex Umoh, Obong Kufre Akpan, and Mrs. Roseline Eyang spoke on behalf of the returnees, affirming their loyalty to Akpabio and the APC. “We never left APC; we recognized you as our leader and refused to be used against you.”

In a statement released today by Chief Press Secretary to the Governor Fintiri

He said, “The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Adamawa, Taraba, Gombe, Borno, and Yobe states have endorsed Ambassador Umar Iliya Damagum’s leadership as Acting National Chairman.

“Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, speaking on behalf of the five states, expressed confidence in Damagum’s leadership since assuming office. Citing a Federal High Court Abuja restraining order, Fintiri stated that Damagum should complete former Chairman Dr. Iyorchia Ayu’s tenure unless the court decides otherwise.

“The Governor praised Damagum for restoring public confidence in the party and urged members to respect the court’s ruling for the party’s and democracy’s sake.

“The Governor who described the performance of the party in the North East region during the 2023 elections as unprecedented at all levels noted that the zone deserves the position of National Chairman more than any section in the North.

“A Federal High Court in Abuja had barred the National Working Committee, Board of Trustees, National Executive Committee, PDP, INEC, and affiliates from replacing, nominating or appointing any Chairman other than Ambassador Damagum, following a restraining order by the Court.”
