Social activist and entrepreneur, Comrade Kennedy Iyere on Saturday 22nd July, 2023 convened a town hall meeting of the Key Support Groups of the Obidients Movement and their Coordinators drawn from the 27 Local Government of Imo State and across the 301 electoral wards.

The town hall meeting titled “Imo Obidients Townhall Meeting ” held at the Foret Event Centre in Owerri was attended by many support groups and their leader.

According to the political activist, the town hall meeting was necessary in order to gather support for Sen Hope Uzodinma, as well as to inform the gatherings why he’s supporting the Imo State governor for his reelection in 2023.

He added that it was very important to hold such a meeting because he knows that more than 85% of the Obidients in Imo State will not hesitate to follow whichever direction he leads, hence there was the need to bring to their knowledge the reasons which prompted him to adopt Sen Hope Uzodinma, as his preferred candidate among others.

“Sen Hope Uzodinma is my choice because of his passion for development interventions, his passion for human capital development led to the creation of the SkillUpImo Project, which if properly implemented, will solve unemployment, grow youth enterprise, de-radicalize the youths and address insecurity.

“My own NGO, Youths Off The Street Initiative (YOTSI), is willing and prepared to collaborate with the SkillUpImo Project and help to facilitate foreign grants and other donor funds, which will help to up-scale the operations and the scope of the SkillUpImo Project for the benefit of Imo Indigenes. This strategic youth development initiative is one of its kind in Nigeria, beyond the youths, other young adults, women and men alike, are part of the beneficiaries of the SkillUpImo Project.

“Sen Uzodinma has proven himself to me that he is a 21st Governor, who understands the power of technology and the role it plays in the 21st Century Digital Economy. He knows the value of human capital and its role in promoting entrepreneurship and the growth of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises(MSMEs), which is the surest way to enforce the accelerated growth of  the GDP of Imo State ”, Iyere said.

Iyere further said that Sen Hope Uzodinma ranks among the best among Imo Governors elected since 1999, adding that his comparison is based on their individual performances.

He asserted that the government of Sen Uzodinma has achieved and delivered more dividends of democracy to the people of Imo State than the combined achievements of Udenwa, Ohakim and Rochas Okorocha.

“Since 1999 till date, Sen Hope Uzodinma has done far better than any other Imo Governor, none has matched the record of Sen Hope Uzodinma, in terms of infrastructural and human capital development. Orlu Road, Okigwe Road, Mbaise Road, SkillUpImo Project, the Growth of Imo IGR and GDP are among the facts to prove his outstanding achievements”, Iyere declared.

Iyere promised to soon launch a grassroots people’s movement for Sen Hope Uzodinma, which will be driven by Imo voters, designed to mobilize and recruit voters across electoral wards for the re-election of Sen Hope Uzodinma.

According to Iyere, all lovers of positive human development and economic emancipation, will all sign up for this Movement, including teens, youths, young adults and the older voting populace.

“I can assure you that more than 85% of Imo Obidients will join this Movement, reason being that the Movement is championed by my humble self. My name alone is enough to draw Imo Obidients to sign up for Sen Hope Uzodinma. They know me too well and they know my role in the involvement of the Obidient Movement”, Iyere said.
