Youth leader cautions APC govs over plot to remove Uzodimma as Chairman

Notable Igbo Youth leader, Ambassador Arthur Obiora, has called on the governors of the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC, to drop the idea of removing Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State as their chairman, urging them to continue to work as a united team ahead of the 2027 elections.
Obiora, a former“Ohanaeze Youth leader and currently Chairman of Southern Nigeria Ethnic Youth leaders, noted that Uzodimma has contributed immensely to the party in various ways, saying that whatever issues they have should be resolved amicably.
The attempt at removing Governor Uzodimma as the chairman is a dangerous ethic card capable of subverting President Tinubu’s re-election efforts, given that the governor has worked tirelessly towards the project”.

They dismissed the allegation of missing N800 billion as “unfounded and unsubstantiated fabrication”, saying it is “part of the scheme designed to rubbish the Tinubu administration and destabilize the re-election effort by attempting to cause confusion, division, and bad blood among major stakeholders.
According to them, those who want Governor Uzodimma out “are inordinately ambitious politicians seeking to hijack and gain control of President Tinubu’s campaign structure and use such to exert pressure on the President for their selfish gains ahead of the elections.”

“We have been made aware of the fact that those attacking Governor Uzodimma seek to alienate him from the President so as to have undue access to hijack and gain control of President Tinubu’s campaign structure and use such to exert pressure on the President for their selfish gains ahead of the elections.
