In his remarks, Ganduje highlighted that the electoral successes of Uzodimma and Ododo underscored the widespread acceptance of the APC among Nigerians. He emphasized that the victories in both states reflected the citizens’ appreciation for the effective governance provided by Governor Uzodinma in Imo and the outgoing Governor Yahaya Bello in Kogi.

Assuring continued commitment to delivering good governance, Ganduje asserted, “As a progressive party, we will always fulfill our promises to provide good governance. The people of Imo and Kogi States can be confident that Uzodimma will uphold his developmental initiatives, while Ododo will build upon the commendable legacies of Governor Bello.”

Ganduje urged opposition members to collaborate with Uzodimma and the incoming governor, Ahmed Ododo, in advancing the progress of their respective states. Addressing their efforts in the electoral contest, he encouraged them with the belief that there would always be future opportunities to gauge their acceptability among the electorate.
