Also, he added that no one can be a democrat and still claim to be ignorant of the law and its ethics.<br \/>\nThe Ehime Mbano born politician referred Hope Uzodinma\u2019s emergence as dawn of a new era in Imo.<br \/>\n\u201cI reasonably know HE Senator Hope Uzodinma having worked closely with him in the past. He has the capacity, charisma, compassion and focus to lead Imo State to the Promised Land. There is a reason why God made him governor. God\u2019s ways are not our ways. Therefore I call all Imolites to offer their unalloyed support and cooperation to his Excellency in his new programme of Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery\u201d.<br \/>\nAccording to Chief Uwakwe, Hope Uzodinma consults widely and is ready to push the State higher with his experience and administrative prowess.<br \/>\nWhile calling on Imolites to support Uzodinma\u2019s administration, he disclosed that having been sworn in, as a man of action, he won\u2019t relent in embarking on solid programs and projects which are dire to the State.<br \/>\nChief Uwakwe revealed that it is a time Ndi Imo need to work together, stressing that being in the opposition has never helped the State before, but with Senator Uzodinma\u2019s contacts, the story would change, and Federal presence to be felt massively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tochi Onyeubi and Onyekachi Eze With the recent coming of the All Progressive
