In Celebration of Easter, Imo Will Rise Again, Says Ihedioha

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship Candidate in Imo
and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha,
CON, KSC, has expressed strong optimism that the State will rise again
from the
ashes of backwardness and bad governance.

In a message to mark the Easter celebrations, Rt. Hon.
Ihedioha said the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ which is being
commemorated
by Christians all over the world symbolizes for Imo people at this material
time, the positive turn around that awaits the state if by the grace of the
electorate, a PDP administration headed by him is voted into office next
Saturday.

He called on the people of the State and indeed all Nigerians
not to lose the essence of the Easter season in the joy of the
celebrations but
to reflect on the life and virtues of Jesus as well as the resurrection power
of the saviour of mankind.

The PDP governorship candidate also called on Imolites to eschew
violence and embrace peace and tolerance especially during the electioneering
season, noting that at the end of the day, the collective interest, progress
and unity of the people is what is paramount.

According to him, the Easter season which heralds the
gubernatorial polls portends for Imo State a unique opportunity to
retrieve the
State from the maladministration and misgovernance of the incumbent governor
and usher it into a realm of a transparent, accountable, progressive and
prosperous all-inclusive government of the people.

“Just like the death and resurrection of our dear Lord Jesus
Christ transformed mankind into redemption and glory, our hope and resolve is
that Imo State will equally witness a positive change,” Rt. Hon. Ihedioha
said.
