Imo state - The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Imo state chapter, has told Governor Hope Uzodimma to start preparing his hand over note ahead of the 2023 general elections.
The Guardian reported that the chairman of the party, John Iwuala, said this on Wednesday, December 29, at the funeral of the chairman of the Isiala Mbano Council of the party, Augustine Amucha.
Iwuala accused Governor Uzodimma of failing to provide good governance and curb insecurity in the southeast state.
He also urged Imo citizens to work together and vote out Uzodimma in next election, saying APGA is the only alternative party that can fight against insecurity.
