The Imo State House of Assembly has reportedly endorsed Governor Rochas Okorocha’s son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, currently serving as the State’s Chief of Staff, as their Governorship candidate in the state’s Governorship election in 2019.
The assembly’s decision was made known in a Press Conference held yesterday by The House Committee Chairman on Petroleum, Imo State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission and Niger Delta Development Commission, Henry Ezediaro.
According to Ezedairo who denied there is crisis in the house, Nwosu was the most qualified to take over from his father-in-law, Okorocha.
“After meeting with the members of the House of Assembly, we, irrespective of party affiliations, have endorsed Ugwumba Uche Nwosu. We urge him to contest the poll. If he does, we will support him to be the governor in 2019. .
On behalf of the lawmakers, we want to use this medium to appeal to the governor and thank him for his free education policy in the state, but without Uche Nwosu, the policy may die and that is why we want him to continue from where he will stop.”
