As a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu's governorship campaign will be based essentially on the achievements of the ruling Party, especially, here in Imo State. From the free education policy which has benefited every family in the State, to the massive provision of infrastructure across the State, to improvement on security of lives and properties, to the urban renewal program which has lifted Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe from glorified villages to some of the best and most organized cities in Nigeria, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu has a lot of things to campaign with as reasons why the people of Imo State should vote for a continuity of the APC in power.
As an individual, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu is coming into the governorship of the State with a huge history of achievements both in his personal business and in public service. Success follows the young man, everywhere he goes and there is no doubt that he will bring more prosperity to Imo people. A seasoned technocrat and chattered administrator, Nwosu is sure to run a very organized system as he will bring his over two decades of experience in cooperate governance and human management into bear in ensuring that Imo moves forward.
The real estate mogul also enjoys massive popularity among all classes of people in the State, especially, among the poor and the youthful population. The Nkwere born savvy investor banks on the support of the people of the State to emerge victorious in governorship election coming up next year and from all indications, he is the incoming governor of the State. This is because a majority of the people have taken a decision to stand with the man who has shown them so much love and made them feel belonged. Stakeholders from across different sectors of the Imo economy are also excited and positively inclined to his governorships ambition. This is because, any of them who has had cause to get involved in any dealing with Ugwumba Uche Nwosu confirms his intelligence, wonderful temperament and great passion for the continued development of Imo State. Ugwumba Uche Nwosu is a man who believes in carrying everyone along in the running of State business.
Ugwumba Uche Nwosu's support among politicians also cut across Party lines. While, he is going to be the flag bearer of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Nwosu has his supporters among the highest hierarchy of some of the strongest opposition political parties in the State. His age, integrity, humility and compassionate attributes easily draw people to him.
For majority of Imolites, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu's governorship ambition is a project that anyone that thinks good of the State must be committed to. A peaceful and highly understanding gentleman, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu is one of the few Nigerian politicians whom no one can really say he has something tangible against. He is at peace with everyone and even when he is offended by some people, he does not keep such hurts to heart. He forgives easily and carries on like nothing has ever gone wrong.
Chief Innocent Onyendu from Avu in Owerri West LGA of the State recently shared his feelings about Uche Nwosu with some of his friends. According to him; "That young man is a special kind of leader. I have been in politics for a while, but I haven't met a politician that is as genuinely kind as Ugwumba Uche Nwosu. Once I had some issues that needed the intervention of the government to resolve, I ran into him when he came to inspect a construction work going on around my neighborhood, I tried to approach him, but his aides stopped me.
On noticing my struggles with his aides, he asked that I should be allowed to come and meet him. I told him my problems. He took my details and I actually took it for granted that he has played politics with me. I had almost lost hope with the promise he made to me on that, when after like two months, I received a call from someone in government telling me that the problem had been resolved. After necessary documentations, I got my paycheck, in full." That is actually the kind of person Ugwumba Uche Nwosu is. He has helped thousands of people resolve their problems as a Commissioner and now as Chief of Staff, there is no doubt that as governor, he will be accessible and quite helpful to more and more Imolites.
Most importantly, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu's governorship has Divine unction. His is a Divine Mandate that cannot be derailed by any human. God has seen in Ugwumba Uche Nwosu, that leader who will place more emphasis on lifting the poor, assisting the weak and protecting widows, orphans and the less privileged. God has anointed him, just like He did to King David, to fight for the people of Imo, to consolidate on the gains of the past seven years and also improve where necessary.
IMO IS MOVING FORWARD...
