Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State has insisted that next
year’s general election would determine whether the people of his state
accepted him.
Uzodinma said this while appearing on Channels Television’s
Politics Today on Tuesday.
He noted that his responsibility is to convince the people
of Imo to vote for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress,
Bola Tinubu, during the 2023 general elections.
“I belong to a political party. I have the responsibility to
convince my people that my party has the best programmes for the country. I
will convince voters,” Uzodimma said.
“Let me take the programmes of my political party to my
people; let me market the programmes of my political party to my people.
“Let the election come, let my people vote. Then, the
outcome of the election will determine whether they accepted my party or my
candidate.
“The presidential election is an election for a Nigerian
President, not an Igbo President…Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the candidate of APC to
be President of Nigeria, not President of Igbo, or Yoruba or Hausa,” he added.
In the race which some analysts have described as a
three-horse contest, is Tinubu; Obi; as well as Peoples Democratic Party’s
Atiku Abubakar, who was Nigeria’s Vice-President between 1999 and 2007.
