President Muhammadu Buhari has commended Sen. Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress (APC) over the Supreme Court ruling declaring him the winner of the 2019 governorship election in the State.
The Supreme Court had on Tuesday, through Justice Kudirat kekere-Ekun, removed Emeka Ihedioha of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) as Governor of the state and declared Hope Uzodinma winner.
Buhari commended the Supreme Court for the ‘courage and perseverance’ to return Sen. Hope Uzodinma, stating that the road to justice may be long and tortuous, but it is the best.
“Under the new administration, a new journey to build a new Imo with new energy is about to begin. In this outcome, it is the people of Imo State who have emerged victorious.”
He urged Uzodinma to promote the ideals of the APC and unite the state by running an inclusive administration.
