My Successor Might not be Religious, God Fearing Like me, Gov Uzodimma Reveals

Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, says his successor might not be religious and God fearing like him.

The Imo helmsman disclosed this while addressing a delegation of leaders from Owerri Zone who visited him at the Government House in Owerri on Wednesday.

According to Uzodimma, the selection process of his successor must be transparent and democratic.

Uzodimma said despite initiating the Imo Charter of Equity to promote inclusivity and fairness in the rotation of power among the state’s three zones, the charter would only serve as a guiding principle and not an automatic ticket.

“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.

Continuing “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.”
