The lawmaker representing Ikeduru/Mbaitoli Federal Constituency of Imo State in the House of Representatives, Amarachi Amadi, has called on the people of the state to ensure that the governor of the state, Hope Uzodinma is re-elected during next month’s governorship election in the state.
The 30-year-old federal lawmaker while speaking at a stakeholders’ meeting he organised on Friday to give an account of performance within four months in office and to fulfil his electioneering promises, pointed out that the best thing that would happen to the state presently was to have Uzodinma reelected as the governor of the state.
Amadi said that the governor had done well in infrastructure, provision of jobs, prompt payment of salaries and pensions, and lifting of the education, health and agricultural sectors, among others.
The youthful lawmaker said that among all the governorship candidates, Uzodimma had more capacity and experience to move the state forward.
He said that the governor was doing well to tackle insecurity and deepening democracy in the state.
