The Imo State House of Assembly has unanimously passed a vote of confidence on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Hope Uzodimma, and the All Progressives Congress (APC), endorsing Tinubu for re-election in 2027.

The landmark endorsement came during the State of the State Address delivered by Governor Uzodimma at the Assembly Complex, drawing applause and solidifying the political will of the state legislature.

The motion, raised by the Deputy Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Amara Chyna Iwuanyanwu, hailed President Tinubu for his impactful leadership and strategic investments in the Southeast, particularly in Imo State.

“President Tinubu has shown uncommon commitment to national unity by bridging regional gaps and investing heavily in our development. This endorsement is our way of saying we trust his leadership, and we want more,” Iwuanyanwu said.

The House also passed a resounding vote of confidence on Governor Hope Uzodimma, commending him for “unprecedented strides” in infrastructure and human capital development across the state.

Iwuanyanwu pointed to Uzodimma’s transformational governance, especially in road construction and youth empowerment initiatives.

The motion further recognised the APC as the bedrock of the state’s and Nigeria’s democratic progress, with Iwuanyanwu lauding the party for maintaining a broad, inclusive political structure and delivering on its promises to Nigerians.

“The APC is Africa’s largest and most influential political party, noting its growing popularity even in previously resistant zones like the Southeast.”

Political analysts said this unanimous vote as a strategic move that may shape alliances ahead of the 2027 general elections, positioning Imo as a key player in national decision-making.
