Senator Hope Uzodimma’s inauguration for a second term is scheduled to take place in Owerri, and notable Nigerians, including National Assembly members, state governors, ministers, and President Bola Tinubu, are anticipated to attend.
Declan Emelumba, the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, revealed that the president has confirmed President Tinubu’s attendance at the ceremony.
According to Emelumba, who is also the chairman of the inaugural committee’s publicity panel, many governors and a few previous presidents were equally anticipated.
The Commissioner stated that because of Governor Uzodimma’s all-encompassing attitude toward Nigeria, traditional leaders from all around the nation would also be present at the ceremony. He declared that security in and around Owerri had been stepped up due to the calibre of guests that were anticipated.
Nonetheless, Emelumba urged the people of the state to extend their customary hospitality to every visitor to the inauguration celebrations.
Yesterday’s Thanksgiving Mass at Maria Assumpta Cathedral took place before Governor Uzodimma was sworn in at Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri. Right after the inauguration, there would be a state banquet at Government House Owerri.
Meanwhile, Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, has described the second term inauguration of Governor Uzodimma as a testimony of his progressive leadership style in the last four years.
“I am happy that the excellent hallmarks of leadership demonstrated by your administration in the last four years are receiving a resounding appreciation by the good people of Imo State as demonstrated through their overwhelming votes to you during the last governorship election in the state.
“I feel elated to receive the letter of invitation to your second tenure inauguration and swearing-in ceremonies slated for January 15.”
In a congratulatory letter to Uzodimma on his inauguration for a second term, the minister also noted that the solidarity of Imo State and the South East to the cause of the Renewed Hope agenda of President Tinubu’s administration was evidence of their “common vision for a prosperous and progressive state that shines forth in the comity of states.”
He said the overwhelming support the people of Imo State gave Uzodimma for a second term in office is a testimony of the excellent hallmarks of leadership demonstrated by his administration in the last four years.
“The increasing solidarity of your state, and indeed South East, to the cause of the Renewed Hope administration of President Bola Tinubu and their unflinching support to our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), are heart-warming evidence of their common vision for a prosperous and progressive state that shines forth in the comity of states.
“It is my pleasure, therefore, to offer my profound felicitations to you on this auspicious and historic moment of your renewed mandate as Governor of Imo State.
“I wish Your Excellency more glorious milestones as you step into the second term of your social contract with the good people of Imo State.
“Please, Your Excellency, accept always the assurances of the affectionate considerations, esteemed regards, and best wishes of my family, the management and the staff of the Federal Ministry of Works. Once more, congratulations.”
