President-General of Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, has revealed how the Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, helped cleared outstanding debts in the organization.
According to The PUNCH, he revealed that he met some debts and financial challenges when he emerged as the leader of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation last April.
Iwuanyanwu revealed this during a meeting with the Ohanaeze leadership, regional state governors, and National Assembly members on Monday night at the Imo State Governors Lodge in Abuja.
“I met some debts and financial challenges when I came in as president general of Ohaneze. But thanks to people like Hope Uzodinma who came to our rescue. He brought in his PROs (public relations officers) and provided everything including security to make the journey very easy for us.
“It is important to mention here that this is not the first time he has done that. When he was a senator many years ago, I think he gave us N16 million that time. When our structure was attacked by these unknown gunmen, he rebuilt the house. And whenever we have a problem, he has been a dependable person.
“Even as a governor, he has done well. I have monitored his progress and can confidently say I am very proud of him. I must also say as your president general, I am very proud to be your leader,” he said.
