The huge concentration of powers in the office of the Governor needs to be revisited and unbundled in line with the principles of devolution of power\u201d PDP maintained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv9139039589gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">It called for more constructive measures to quell what it called menace of insecurity in Imo State.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv9139039589gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">\u201cImo State has had enough criminality and bloodbath. What the State needs now is absolute tranquility to attract investments and promote existing business\u201d PDP charged the ruling Government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv9139039589gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the main opposition political party in Imo State, has asked<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"thumbnail":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2-300x166.jpg",300,166,true],"medium_large":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"large":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"1536x1536":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"2048x2048":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"elegant-magazine-featured":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"elegant-magazine-medium":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",640,354,false],"elegant-magazine-medium-small":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",300,166,false],"elegant-magazine-thumbnail-small":["http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/PDP-2-2.jpg",50,28,false]},"author_info":{"info":["Imo Trumpeta"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/?cat=27\" rel=\"category\">News<\/a>","tag_info":"News","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=42553"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42554,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42553\/revisions\/42554"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/27846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=42553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=42553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=42553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
