“Over the past years, Governor Uzodimma has continued to shine like the northern star, remaining steadfast and focused on delivering quality and standard infrastructure across Imo State. His administration’s prioritization of critical road infrastructure, particularly the connections between the major towns of Owerri, Orlu, and Okigwe, is commendable.”
Hon. Nwogu further highlighted the governor’s efforts in opening up the state’s agrarian regions by extending road networks to rural communities across various local government areas.
He concluded with prayers for continued divine guidance and strength for Governor Uzodimma to sustain and surpass his current strides, ensuring greater dividends of democracy for all Imolites before the end of his tenure.
