Ihedioha: We Must Rebuild From Okorocha’s Ruins

Governor Emeka Ihedioha of Imo State has said that his administration is making steady progress in its effort to rebuild the state from the ruins of the last administration

Governor Ihedioha, while calling for continued diligence and patriotism among the citizens, urged resilience towards achieving the task of rebuilding the state.

“Let us continue to work hard. Together, we will rebuild our state”, he stressed.

The governor who made the call on his arrival from the 74th United Nations General Assembly at Sam Mbakwe International Airport, Owerri, on Sunday, also urged Imo citizens and Nigerians to continue to make positive contributions for a better nation.

He noted that the state has made steady progress under his watch and would continue to witness genuine and proactive efforts towards rebuilding the state.

He described as, “exploratory and gainful”, his engagements while in the US, adding that the trip also offered the state the opportunity to improve on her relationship with development partners and developed countries.

Governor Ihedioha enjoined the citizens to be patient with his administration, noting that, “the Imo Community in Diaspora and our partners are appreciative of the steps we have taken so far to rebuild the state”.

He said, “the trip was exploratory. We are all aware that we are working hard to get back to both national and international reckoning, though that will take a while but the good news is that we are making steady progress.

“So it is in our best interest to continue to improve our relationship with the civilized world. So far our efforts are yielding the desired results.”

Recall that Governor Ihedioha had held some strategic business  meetings with key multilateral agencies on the side of the Assembly, including United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in New York, where he received commendation from Ms. Ahunna Eziakonwa-Onochie, Assistant Secretary General of the UN and Regional Director, UNDP Regional Bureau for Africa for his efforts at redefining governance in the state.

The governor who secured the assurance of the UNDP to support the state in capacity building, job and wealth creation, youth development, tourism, business mapping and setting the Sustainable Development Goals framework for the state, expressed delight over the renewed confidence of the development partners in the state.
