According to him, the people of the region have no reason to protest against the incumbent government, stressing that the federal government and President Bola Tinubu are working hard to bring lasting solutions to the economic challenges the people are facing. Uzodinma appealed to the people to give the government more time to work and fix the challenges.
He said: “ To the youths of southeast, because we are on the path of growth, our enemies are trying to disorganize national government. “They will come to you, they want you to protest, ask those who want you to protest where are their children. Why must you be the one to protest and to protest against what? “This government is our government, the government of President Bola Tinubu is our government. So nobody from Southeast will protest.
We are not aggrieved, we have hope” “Whatever they say, this government is barely one year in office. Yes we are aware of the hardship, we are aware things are hard, but I promise you that the presidenti is working so hard to release money to the people, to deliver infrastructure to the people and to release and increase food security to the people. Follow your leaders, work with your leaders. ”
