Imo State governor senator Hope Uzodimma has said that he is confident that the people of the state will reelect him because he has served them “meritoriously”.
Speaking recently in Owerri Imo State, Uzodinma, who is seeking reelection on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said Imo residents would prove their love for him in the November 11 election.
Uzodinma said his administration’s “unprecedented” achievements have endeared him to the people of Imo, adding that no propaganda would make voters change their minds.
He added that his government initiated and successfully executed development projects that stimulated economic growth and created jobs, which have led to improvements in the lives of the people.
“Our people know the leaders that love them.They know that we have served them meritoriously in the last three years and we are happy that our people are also very appreciative of what we have done just as they demonstrated during the last election,” he said.
“Those who still think we aren’t overwhelmingly popular are amnesiacs because we wonder why they quickly forgot how our people gave us a landslide victory in an election conducted a few months ago.
“Our infrastructural development, particularly our road revolution has been the key factor that has set us apart and won the hearts of Imo people”.
“The massive electoral support they gave us in March is a clear indication that the people of Imo have wholeheartedly embraced our efforts.
“The overwhelming and unprecedented support is a vote of confidence in my government’s achievements over the last three years which is both fulfilling and a call for us to redouble our efforts towards more projects and greater dedication to duty.
“We operate a government that is open and transparent. We engage and connect with our people on a regular basis by rendering reports of our stewardship to them.
“We are committed to doing more for our people and they are ready to revalidate our mandate to continue to serve them.”
Uzodinma said it is delusional for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to think that his candidate would win the governorship election.
The governor said the people of the state would vote for him to “consolidate” his “prosperity agenda” to give hope to the residents.
“It is obvious the PDP is suffering from delusional grandeur. How a drowning party like that thinks our people are with them beats my imagination,” he said.
The governor added that voters in the state demonstrate their unflinching support for him due to his records.
