Leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State have endorsed the leadership of Governor Hope Uzodinma and Minister of State for Eduucation, Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba.
The endorsement came on the heels of alleged crisis of confidence in the state chapter of the party.
Led by a former Deputy Governor of the state, Prince Eze Madumere, the stakeholders not only passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of Uzodinma, it also lauded Nwajiuba and Princess Gloria Akobundu, Director General of NEPAD,for their exemplary performances in office.
“We urge all Imo state Citizens to support the Governor in his stride to achieve the set agenda.
“We equally pass a vote of confidence on the Hon. Minister of State for Education, Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba and Director General of New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD), Princess Gloria Akobundu for their sterling performances so far.
“We also recognize the leadership of Prince M. O. Nlemigbo -led APC caretaker committee which was constituted after the dissolution of the Imo State APC party executive committee, Local Government and Ward Executives Committee by the National Working Committee (NWC) on the 18th of December, 2018 which is further supported by the recent court ruling with Suit No: FCT/HC/BW/CV/103/2018 and Motion No: FCT/HC/M/3025/2019, delivered on the 16th of July 2020.
“We also encourage all members of the party to discontinue all legal suits as resolved by the last NEC meeting as supported by President Muhammadu Buhari. We will support the leadership of the party in all disciplinary measures they may decide to take against any breach of our party rules and regulations.
They held that there was no faction in Imo APC since after the 2019 elections, as all had come together under the leadership of the state governor.
