Information reaching our News desk from the office of the Majority Leader of the 10th House in the IMHA has thrown a clearer picture against the allegations stage managed by the opposition of government to ridicule Governor Hope Uzodinma’s administration.
The circulating information that all Hotels in Owerri are reserved and booked for the All Progressives Congress government led by Governor Hope Uzodinma is baseless and misconstrued.
Imo State Government has categorically denied any knowledge of such plans to book all hotel rooms in the state for the forth coming governorship election which is slated to hold on Saturday November 11.
It described as outright falsehood, the allegation by the opposition that the government was planning to spend N5b to book and block all hotels in the state in order to checkmate the influx of thugs into the state.
The Majority Leader of IMO State House of Assembly Rt Hon. Kanayo Onyemaechi (Egbe Eji Eje Ogu), told Newsmen in Owerri that the government was not aware of any such arrangement.
He clarified that the government has never corresponded with stakeholders through the social media:
“The government is not aware of any such hotel bookings. The government does not correspond with stakeholders through social media and will not do so”
Onyemaechi however acknowledged that the government was aware of plans by the opposition to flood the state with thugs ahead of the elections, adding that the matter was being addressed with relevant security agencies for necessary action.
He described as idiotic the allegation that the government was importing thugs from neighbouring states to rig the election.
Kanayo Onyemaechi said that contrary to such insinuations, Gov Hope Uzodimma and the APC will win the election in a free and fair contest.
Said he, ” the opposition knows that they have already lost the election. That is why they are fabricating all manner of lies to distract the government, like this hotels propaganda
He therefore called on Imo electorate to ignore all the antics of the opposition and focus on returning the governor for a well-deserved second term to continue his good works.
