Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has been accused of abandoning his constitutional duties and making governance suffer in the state.

The allegation was made by the deputy governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the November 11, Imo state governorship polls, Emeka Nwulu.

According to him, Uzodinma has been out of the state for over thirty days and did not hand over to his deputy, neither is there a functioning state executive council in Imo State.

“With the governor missing in action for the past 30 days, the state is left directionless and devoid of leadership.”

“There is no government in Imo State in the past 30 days. And we wonder how the State can function without appointees and the governor absconding from his duties for a long period.

He added, ”Imo State is being run like someone’s empire. The State is like a vessel without a captain, ”
