Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, who also leads the Progressives Governors’ Forum, recently presented former Senate President Pius Anyim to President Bola Tinubu.
Anyim, who was Secretary to the Government of the Federation under former President Goodluck Jonathan, switched from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) last week.
After their meeting, Uzodimma praised the current administration for its support of the South East, noting that the South East Governors Forum is highly appreciative of President Tinubu’s efforts. He also pointed out that the APC recently gained control of an entire local government, a testament to the administration’s effective governance.
“This is a new dawn and many people have agreed that the President administration is doing very well.”
Anyim said that his determination is that Nigeria moves forward, “there is need that we all should put hands together to move the country forward.”
He defected to the APC with some of his supporters during the grand finale of the APC campaign for the Local Government Area (LGA) elections in Abakaliki, Ebonyi capital.
