Gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 11 November Imo State governorship polls, Senator Athan Achonu has berated Governor Hope Uzodimma over his promise to procure 4,000 non-existent jobs for Imo youths in Europe.
He alleged that the governor has taken his rudderless government a notch higher by promising Imo youths non-existent jobs in Europe, stressing that it did not deviate from the character of this government which brandishes falsehood as a badge of honour.
Sunday Sun reports in a statement yesterday signed by the Director, Media and Publicity to Senator Athan Achonu Campaign Organisation, Mr Chibuikem Diala, the LP gubernatorial candidate said he had watched with bemusement the recent video of the outgoing governor promising to procure jobs for Imo youths in Europe.
He said: “The governor took the fraudulent credential of his rudderless government a notch higher by promising Imo youths non-existent jobs in Europe.
That such drivel could proceed from the mouth of the chief executive of Imo State is shocking and disgraceful; nothing could be further than the truth.
However, it did not deviate from the character of this government who brandishes falsehood as a badge of honour.”
Achonu alleged that for close to four years, that the Uzodinma government has impoverished the people and failed to lift a finger to tackle the sprawling unemployment level in the state.
“He has failed in all indices of governance, leaving the state crushed and prostrate on the hard surface of avoidable penury,” he said
