Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma has debunked
reports suggesting he allegedly said President Buhari is insensitive to
imolites in a viral video.
Recall, reports in the media had purportedly alleged that
the Governor of Imo state made a remark in an interview on Channels TV, saying
the president is insensitive to plights of imolite.
Reacting, DG, New media to Gov Hope Uzodinma, Paul Ihunanya
disclosed that the opposition and enemies of the present Imo administration
were behind the doctored video.
According to Paul, Gov Hope Uzodinma clearly said the
President has sufficient interest in Imo.
“We are supporting his administration, we are supporting all
his policies because Mr President has shown sufficient interest in terms of
pragmatic approach in listening and “be-ing~sensitive” to the yearning of
Imolites.”
“That’s the clear words of His Excellency Distinguished
Senator Hope UzodiNma,” Paul said.
The Presidency also in a
statement said President Muhammadu Buhari’s comment on Governor Hope Uzodinma
of Imo at the meeting with South-East Leaders has been quoted out of context.
Buhari was quoted as saying that “I’ll be careful with your
future invitations” at end of his speech at the occasion.
Femi Adeshina, SSA on media to the president noted, Buhari
at the event made it clear that he was expressly overwhelmed by the reception
and galaxy of personalities that travelled from the five South Eastern states
to have a heart-to-heart discussion with him in Owerri
He said, ”The purveyors of disinformation want Nigerians to
believe that the President bluntly told Governor Uzodinma, ‘I’ll be careful
with your future invitations.’
”They have adduced different meanings to the phrase,
contrary to the context wherein the President spoke during his successful
dialogue with leaders of thought from Igbo land.
