The Imo State Government has stated that Governor Hope Uzodinma is hale and hearty against some media reports that he is down with a stroke and was rushed to India for treatment.

This was made known by the Information Commissioner, Chief Declan Emelumba, in a statement on Wednesday.

He maintained that the governor was hale and hearty and discharging his functions.

Emelumba said, “Uzodinma is not afflicted with any challenge that would have led to a stroke. His Excellency attended a meeting with the president alongside other APC governors this morning. As I speak, he has entered another party meeting with other stakeholders ahead of APC’s convention. So I don’t really know what those concocting this rumour want to achieve.”

According to him, the allegation was “unfounded, wicked and a mindless fabrication”.

He added, “It is clear that those who do not wish the governor well have been fantasizing about a phantom illness, but they will continue to be disappointed as Uzodimma is enjoying robust health and attending to state duties.”

Emelumba warned the purveyors of the rumours to desist forthwith before they suffer unmitigated disaster.

The commissioner called on the public to ignore the voice note, saying “disregard this fabrication from mentally deranged elements seeking attention over nothing”.
