Presenting his speech shortly after being sworn in, Governor Hope Uzodomma poured econium on the people of Imo State for their massive support and votes for victory during the November 11 governorship election in Imo State.
The governor, who described the massive support of the Imo people as a social contract, vowed to honour it in the course of his governance during his second tenure in office.
Uzodimma vowed to focus on the delivery of shared posterity through massive infrastructure development in the state.
He said, “The success recorded in the last four years of his administration will certainly be dwarfed by the success that will be recorded in the second term.”

To the people of Imo State, the governor called on everyone to key into building the Imo State of their dreams, pointing out that Imo State belongs to all.
The governor urged the people of the state to think of what to contribute to building a new Imo State rather than leaving it to the government alone.
Uzodimma assured of the need to provide an enabling environment for the would-be investors in the state, adding that his second tenure would transform Imo State into an industrial hub of the South East.
