Imo Governor Uzodimma Warns Successor May Lack Religious Values

Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State spoke to a delegation of leaders from Owerri Zone during their visit to the Government House in Owerri on Wednesday.

He emphasized that the process for selecting his successor must be both transparent and democratic.


Imo Charter of Equity as Guiding Principle

Uzodimma highlighted the Imo Charter of Equity, which he initiated to promote inclusivity and fairness in rotating power among the state’s three zones.

However, he clarified that the charter is meant as a guiding principle and does not automatically guarantee a political position to any individual.


Balancing Equity with Democracy

The governor explained, “The Charter of Equity is not a slogan for confusion. It is a document to remind us of the imbalance in the system and see how best to correct it.”

He added that it must work alongside democratic processes to ensure a fair selection.


Warning About Future Leadership

Uzodimma further noted the importance of moral and religious values in leadership, stating:

“If we don’t follow this approach, the man coming after me may not be as religious and God-fearing as I am.”

He urged leaders to collaborate in order to reduce confusion and uphold the principles of democracy and fairness
