The Forum of Nigeria Professionals in Politics (FNPP) has lauded State Imo Governor Hope Uzodimma for promoting understanding and cooperation between the South East and South West regions.
National Coordinator of FNPP, Chief Okey Ezenwa, commended Governor Uzodimma for his sustained consultations and shuttle diplomacy, which have resulted in a stronger bond and collaboration between the two regions.
The FNPP revealed that the South East’s non-participation in the ongoing protests against the Tinubu administration is a testament to Governor Uzodimma’s success in rebuilding the handshake across the Niger initiative, promoting mutual understanding and cooperation.
The Forum further attributed the emerging understanding between the two regions to the efforts by Governor Uzodimma in getting the Southeast to understand and appreciate the commitment of the Tinubu administration towards the well-being of Nigerians, resulting in the willingness of the region to give the President the desired support and time to fix the rot he inherited from the previous administration.
The Forum said it hopes that such gestures will be consolidated and reciprocated in peaceful accommodation, recognition and harmonious relationship between the two regions which it noted have a lot in common and stand to benefit immensely by working together.
The Forum also urged Governor Uzodimma to remain steadfast in his efforts especially in retuning the South East to the mainstream national politics and ensuring that the region remains, safe, peaceful, stable economically alive and in harmonious and beneficial collaboration with other regions of the country.
