Uzodinma yet to condole with Otulu massacre victims’ families – PDP

The Imo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has lamented that Governor Hope Uzodinma has refused to extend condolence to the families of victims of a shooting in Otulu area of the state.

The PDP said citizens of the state cannot wait to see the end of Uzodinma’s rule.

The party said it was provocative to see Uzodinma and members of the All Progressives Congress party with wines in denial of the reality on the ground about their nightmare rule.

This was contained in a statement issued by the PDP State publicity secretary, Emenike Nmeregini.

The statement read,” The I-dont-care, nothing-de-happen attitude of the Governor since the widely condemned, gruesome murder of over 20 innocent youths – his own kinsmen by his Ebubeagu militia has become more glaring that he cares less of 10, 000 innocent lives lost, under his watch, since he broke into the Government House in January 2020.

“Governor Uzodinma’s reaction to the alarming insecurity in the State, especially the recent Otulu massacre, confirms his tacit complicity to the reign of terror and blood letting in Imo State.

“It is incontrovertible that this governor has serially refused to welcome and implement wise counsels, strategies and solutions, proffered by the Peoples Democratic Party in Imo State and that of other patriotic stakeholders towards addressing the nagging insecurity and collapse of government in Imo State.

“While the governor has not only shown deliberate lack of empathy to families of the victims of the massacre, he has deliberately refused to extend solidarity to their families on behalf of the government and people of Imo State.”

The PDP said it would continue to grieve with the good people of Oru East LGA and Ndi Imo in this time of grief and urge them not to despair.

“The darkest hours are usually just before the dawn. This too shall pass and Ndi Imo shall be happy again,” the opposition party averred.
