May 15 (Newshour.com.ng) – In view of the prevailing rot ravaging Imo State, resulting in insecurity, poverty, joblessness, and multiple failures cutting across all sectors, the Accord governorship candidate for the November 11, 2023 election, Ikenga Johnjude Okere, has revealed the quality the next governor must possess.
He said, “This is a perilous time. Things are hard, tough and difficult for the masses. Our concern is, all the problems we are having and suffering from, are man made – caused by the politicians. Therefore, the next Imo State governor must be a creative leader, not a reckless spender”.
Ikenga Johnjude added, “Creativity and ingenuity rule our modern world. Any person who lacks creativity and who is not ingenious in his approaches, cannot administer a highly critical and sensitive state like Imo, not even now the economy is at its lowest ebb, with insecurity, joblessness, and failures across all the sectors in the state”.
The Accord governorship candidate noted that a major part of the problem ravaging the state was that Imo had always been ruled by reckless, unmindful and unproductive rulers who cannot think out of the box. He hinted that all the successive leaders, except one or two, were nothing but failed men who used governance as a means to brush up thier images and make up thier economic and social failures, even iniquities.
According to him, “Imo people must not make another mistake on governorship election. November 11, 23 is our date with history. It is our covenant day because, that is our day of liberation, our day of freedom from misrule and governance.
“For this to be achieved, Imo people must do away with the present state actors and vote in a new face of which I would be the soul and chief operating officer”.
