Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma has disclosed that President Muhammadu Buhari is due to visit the state on Thursday, September 9 to commission some projects.

The governor said: “The Southeast desire is to join the national politics and those of us in the committee are doing our best to convince our people in Anambra State that we will be better for it if they are in APC. Joining the party at the centre will enable the Southeast leaders manage the welfare and trust of their people better.”

Governor Uzodimma further explained: “The Southeast has suffered a great deal of marginalization. The Southeast has been excluded in many things, the reason being that Nigeria is practising partisan democracy, and once you are with the ruling party, there are some advantages you will get outside those who are not in that party. This is no longer a secret.”

On the APC local government congresses in the state, the governor assured that everything had been put in place for a transparent, free and fair congress.
