Isaac Wambe Reports.
The leadership and membership of Northern Men & Women (NM&W) in Imo State are excited with the re-appointment and promotion of the duo of Hon Alhaji Suleiman Ibrahim and Hon Hajia Fatima Hamza in the Imo State Expanded Executive Council. Both made it to the just released appointment list of Gov Hope Uzodimma of Imo State as his Special Advisers on Northern Men Affairs and Northern Women Affairs respectively.
The group in her maiden Press Conference in Owerri, Imo State Capital, commended the Governor of Imo State, His Excellency Dist Sen Hope Uzodimma (CON) for his exemplary Pan-Nigerian disposition towards inclusive governance and egalitarianism.
The Coordinators, Alh Bashir Mohammed (Men) and Hajia Rikiya Waziri (Women) were full of praises towards Gov Hope Uzodimma for rewarding loyalty. Alhaji Suleiman Ibrahim and Hon Hajia Fatima Hamza really showed enormous capacities in their mobilization for the Governor’s reelection.
The two Coordinators were thankful for the Governor’s exceptional goodwill which has manifested in various ways towards the Northerners in Imo State.
They particularly eulogized the Governor’s level of religious tolerance, particularly for the feat of sponsoring Muslim Umma to Mecca, first last year and again this year.
“Northerners have never had it this fair with any Governor in all of the Eastern Region. No! We are made to freely associate, socialize and even become integral members of the State’s Expanded Executive Council.
In the Gov’s first tenure, we had up to three appointees in the Government of Imo State. Today, we have our foremost leaders, Hon Alhaji Suleiman Ibrahim and Hon Hajia Fatima Hamza reappointed and even elevated in their positions from Senior Special Assistants to Special Advisers.
We can’t thank the Governor enough. We are really happy that our support for Gov Hope Uzodimma has really yielded positive rewards to our Community”, Alh Bashir Mohammed enthused.
“May Allah continue to protect, envision, direct and sustain our Governor. We must now let the entire Northern State Governments and our leaders that in Gov Hope Uzodimma, the North has a Pan-Nigerian leader. Wallahi, Hausas in Imo are happy and well cartered for by Gov Hope Uzodimma”, Hajia Rikiya Waziri said.
On 21st day of June, 2024, the Imo State Government of Shared Prosperity announced a list of 55 Special Advisers and 10 Senior Special Assistants.
The duo of Alhaji Suleiman Ibrahim and Hon Hajia Fatima Hamza thanked Allah for Gov Hope Uzodimma and his humane kind of governance.
“How else do we have to show the Governor the high level of gratitude we have towards the him and his Government than continuing to support the good works of the Governor and also contributing our quota towards the peace and development of Imo State”, Hon Suleiman Ibrahim quipped.
On her own feelings towards her re-appointment and promotion, Hon Hajia Fatima Hamza said; “On behalf of our Northern Women in Imo State, I want to specially appreciate the continuing favourable disposition of my Principal, His Excellency Dist Sen Hope Uzodimma towards us in this State.
We are grateful to the Secretary to the Government of Imo State (SGI), Hon Chief Cosmas Iwu for always being in touch with our Community and ensuring that the Governor’s enormous goodwill towards us gets to us.
We are blessed to have a father in our Traditional Ruler, Sarki Hausawa, HRH Alh Awwal Baba Sule. His meticulous mediatory leadership is invaluable. May Allah continue to bless and reward our Governor and his Government.”.
