A statement sent to Legit.ng by the Imo state government noted that Governor Uzodimma during the meeting, recounted the achievements of his administration and made remarks on some areas that previous administrations in the state had left to rot and ruin but he has resuscitated.
Declaring Imo state safe and secure, Governor Uzodimma said his administration has changed the ugly narratives held about the state's roads, infrastructures, civil service, health, education, industrialization, empowerment, etc.
Writing on the meeting on his Facebook page, Governor Uzodinma wrote:
“Today, I had an interactive session with stakeholders of Imo state across party lines; religious differences, political ideologies, and varied socio-cultural backgrounds with the purpose of accounting for my stewardship within the period under review to the good people of Imo state.
“In my presentation to the Imo stakeholders, I announced the departure of the state from over-dependence on federation allocation with an improved Internally Generated Revenue of over N1b per month.
“These could not have been actualized without an impact from the revamping of our state institutions vis-a-vis ADAPALM which now produces over 100,000 metric tons of pure red oil.
“With an improved state-of-the-art data centre, my administration is poised to transform the state from analog process of administration to a digitalized and modern system of administration.
“This is in conformity with our agenda of transforming the state into an economically viable state and there is no relenting on this.”
Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday, July 14, received Governor Uzodimma at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
This was disclosed in a Facebook post by Buhari Sallau, a personal assistant on broadcast media to the president.
