Step Down For Uzodinma – APC Chieftain To LP Candidate, Achonu

Meanwhile, an APC chieftain, Chief Tony Chukwu, has advised the governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Athan Achonu to step down for his counterpart in the APC, Hope Uzodimma.

Chukwu gave the advice at the Imo State Council of Elders’ meeting held at his residence in Umeze 1, Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State.

He stated that his request was based on an agreement by Imo Elders to reinstate rotational governorship which stipulates that the Imo governorship position shall rotate among the three zones in the state with Governor Hope Uzodimma as the incumbent, being allowed to complete his second term in office.

Chukwu insisted that it has become imperative for the agreement to be implemented as it is being done in Abia, Anambra, Enugu and Ebonyi States.
