He said his administration has put in place measures to deal a final blow to it in the State.

He noted that bandits have done their worst, saying they have failed because his government has been able to push the agents of darkness away for light to lead.

He expressed surprise that members of the opposition are blind to his modest achievements in the face of insecurity, banditry, unknown gun-men and social media terrorism, adding that his achievements are “a product of support from both Imo people and the Federal Government which are all APC.”

Imo State has been plagued by insecurity since 2020, with the activities of unknown gunmen,bandits and kidnappers at its peak.

At the 6th Imo Stakeholders summit held on January 4,2022, Uzodimma, who had earlier promised to reveal those behind insecurity in the state, failed to do so, stating that it would jeopardize the work of security agencies in the State.
