Imo: My successor may not be religious, God-fearing like me – Gov. Hope Uzodimma

Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has cautioned that his successor may not necessarily share the same religious values or God-fearing disposition as himself.

He made this remark on Wednesday while addressing a delegation of leaders from Owerri Zone at the Government House in Owerri.

The governor emphasized the importance of a transparent and democratic process in the selection of his successor.

He explained that although he initiated the Imo Charter of Equity to encourage fairness and inclusivity in the rotation of power across the state’s three zones, the charter should be seen only as a guiding principle rather than an automatic ticket to power.

He said …

“The Charter of Equity is not a slogan for confusion. It is a document to remind us of the imbalance in the system and see how best to correct it.

“But it must work hand in hand with democratic processes. You must join me now for us to cure this confusion.

“If we don’t, the man coming after me may not be as religious and God-fearing as I am.”
