WHEN SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN
Since 14th January 2020 when the Supreme Court of Nigeria supplanted the electoral will of the good people of Imo State by removing me from office, I have maintained a studious silence,...
Today, I signed an executive order on Treasury Single Account, revenue management, and related matters.
It is our belief that this will in no small measure revive the moribund Imo State Economy and ensure transparency, probity and accountability in governance.

This morning, to kick off our sanitation exercise, I led the distribution of Refuse disposal materials in Owerri and also participated in the clean up process.

Sad to hear about the passing of US legislator John Lewis
@repjohnlewis

He was a veteran civil rights activist, a living legend and a quintessiantial congressman. It’s no wonder he was re-elected to 17 terms by his constituents.

I am overwhelmed by the joy and love I saw on your faces.
We shall surely overcome.
