*Ensure Tinubu Wins, He Charges Them
Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State
has charged the leadership of ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the State to intensify grassroots mobilisation and work towards ensuring a 100 per cent victory for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections.
Uzodimma was Friday, 21 August, 2026, named Secretary of the APC Presidential Campaign Council (PCC). He is also the Director General (DG) of Renewed Hope Agenda Ambassadors of the party.
At the Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu International Convention Centre, Owerri, weekend, while handing over campaign buses to APC local government Chairmen and other party officials, Uzodimma urged them to deploy the vehicles strictly for party activities and mobilisation.
These were contained in a statement issued by Special Adviser (Media) to the Governor, Mr Oguwike Nwachuku.
According to Nwachuku, the Governor, who declared that “APC is Imo State and Imo State is APC,” said the party would embark on massive sensitisation across the State, stressing that “residents had seen the impact of my administration.”
The Governor noted that the State government’s reforms and Renewed Hope agenda had delivered tangible achievements, leaving the party with a strong basis to campaign for Tinubu.
“I cannot deliver the President without you. We will come together and work together, so that together we will also win 100 per cent,” Uzodimma said.
He also urged party officials to strengthen cooperation at the ward and local government levels, warning that “the failure of one person is the failure of the party.”
Uzodimma highlighted improvements in healthcare, including the commissioning of a robotic medical system and expansion of health insurance coverage, as evidence of his administration’s achievements.
He appealed to party members to mobilise voters beyond partisan lines, saying, “Let us come out en masse. Let’s vote for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. No sentiments.”
The Governor said the buses were intended to strengthen the party’s grassroots campaign and ensure effective mobilisation ahead of the election.
Speaking too, Imo State Chairman of APC, Chief Austin Onyedebelu, commended Gov. Uzodimma for providing the buses to strengthen the party’s grassroots mobilisation ahead of the forthcoming elections, noting that the initiative would enhance the party’s campaign operations across the State.
He said the Governor provided 27 buses for the 27 local government party Chairmen, as well as buses for zonal Chairmen, the State woman leader and the State youth leader.
According to him, the vehicles, which are fully branded, would help take the APC’s message to the grassroots and demonstrate the party’s readiness for the elections.
He urged the beneficiaries to use the vehicles strictly for party activities and cautioned them against removing the branding.
“This is very important to us. It carries the message to the people and let them know that we are very serious to elect the next President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he said.
Onyedebelu charged party members to work for the election of all APC candidates, from the presidency to the National and State Assemblies, stressing that no candidate should be left behind.
He called for unity and collective support for Gov. Uzodimma to ensure the party’s success.
The APC National Vice Chairman, South-East, Dr. Ijeoma Arodiogbu, charged party members in Imo State to use the campaign buses provided by the Governor effectively to mobilise voters and deliver victory for the party.
Arodiogbu demanded corresponding commitment from members.
“The more our Governor has given to Imo State APC, we cannot tolerate any excuses,” he said.
He urged party officials to ensure victory for APC candidates in the State and National Assembly elections, as well as the presidential election.
“Every man must deliver his booth and his ward. Don’t come and give us excuses,” Arodiogbu warned.
He commended Uzodimma for his support for the party, describing him as instrumental to the strength of APC in the State.
“Without you, there will be no APC in Imo State today,” he said.
