The Deputy Governor of Imo, Mr Eze Madumere, said he would pursue his governorship ambition to a logical conclusion in spite of opposition from his boss, Chief Rochas Okorocha, who has since endorsed his son-in-law, Mr Uche Nwosu, as his successor. Madumere in a statement issued by Mr Uche Onwuchekwa, his Media aide, said no amount of opposition from the governor would make him to lose sight of the ambition.
According to him “God is the giver of power and decider of destiny and no man born of a woman can stop my ambition. I think that from the wealth of my experience as a seasoned administrator both in public and private sectors, I am the most qualified to take Imo state to the next level.’’
He however lamented that the “greatest opposition’’ to his ambition was from people he nurtured politically, stressing that he was betrayed by people he brought into politics.
