Nonsochukwu Uwa, Owerri
The Imo State Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, on Monday called on Imolites to come together and salvaged the state from insecurity.
Anyanwu spoke to newsmen in Owerri, in commemoration of democracy day celebration in the state.
According to the politician, “Imo State that used to be the number one in the areas of hospitality and security in the entire South-East region has become a shadow of itself, and wondered why the state suddenly turned into a theatre of war for reasons yet unknown.
“I am aware that your businesses have crumbled and collapsed due to the insecure environment we find ourselves today; your lives are threatened and properties destroyed, but be rest assured that peace will be restored again in Imo when the righteous takes over”
“Despite the challenges and the losses, I appeal to you in the name of God to remain focused and law abiding, and continue to play your individual roles in consolidating our democracy until, our state is finally salvaged.
“Once again, let me use this opportunity to salute the good people of Imo State for your unwavering support towards our aspiration to take Imo out from the dungeon and return it back to its pride of place as the Eastern Heartland known for its hospitality and investment friendly state. I assure you that Imo will be safe again,”Anyanwu said.
