Udi leaders of Thought and Stakeholders have
alleged that rather than benefiting from Chime’s
government, the clan experienced retrogression. Arising from Stakeholders and Leaders of Thought
of Umuneke Udi at Eke Udi square, the
amalgamation of communities in Udi south state
constituency, said they have however found
succor in the present administration of Governor
Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi. In a communiqué after the meeting signed by
Chief Sam Aneke and Emeka Aneke the
stakeholders of Umuneke-Udi also washed their
hands off any case the former governor is facing
at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC, and asked him to dance to the anti-graft music. When contacted, ex-Governor Chime alleged the
people were being sponsored by the deputy
Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, and described
them as rabble rousers. *Chime One of the stakeholders, Emeka Aneke said “This
is Eke Udi square and you can smell the aura of
development here, if there was one in those eight
years of Sullivan Chime. We had our hopes and
expectations dashed. We now look forward to the
government of the day. Ugwuanyi has given us hope of inclusive government after 8 years of
wasted development.” Another stakeholder in the group and a former
member of the House of Representatives, Hon.
Garry Eneh said: “We express support to
Governor Ugwuanyi because he has done well
within the past two years. “We also express support to the Deputy Senate
President, Ike Ekweremadu who has empowered
our people and also to Hon. Dennis Amadi of the
House of Representatives. “Unfortunately, we lost out under Sullivan Chime.
It’s a shame that we don’t have any bank in the
communities of Umuneke Udi. He spent 8 years in
PDP and he never knew his ward chairman. “What is he going to do in APC? If he had done
well, we would have followed him. Ugwuanyi has
given him all the respect and should not bother
wherever Chime is headed to.” The meeting unanimously passed a vote of
confidence on Governor Ugwuanyi, Ekweremadu
and the member representing Udi/Ezeagu federal
constituency
