The Imo State governor, Hope Uzodinma, have denied issuing a press release rejecting the outcome of the Edo State Governorship Election.
The reaction from Government House media reads as follows;
The Press Release that Gov.Uzodinma Rejected Edo Election Is Fake.
This is the handiwork of the Enemies of Imo State with nothing to hold against Gov. Uzodinma, hence, lies and propaganda.
For the avoidance of doubt, if any press release did not emanate from the official platforms: Hope New and Electronic Media Center, Imo State New Media and Hope Uzodinma on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter or Direct Email from the Chief press Secretary or the Hon. Commissioner for Information and strategy, please disregard.
Governor Hope Uzodinma values true democracy and will not meddle with anything that is not his business nor against democratic principles.

He believes that the party will make it’s position known on the Edo Election in due cause.
The Governor further urged journalist not to allow themselves be used as a tool for political witch hunting.
Therefore, the image with the publication should be trashed as the the Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma never made such comments nor did the Chief Press Secretary ever publish such fallacy.
