The Imo Economic Development Initiative (IEDI) has expressed satisfaction over the socioeconomic policies and programmes of Imo State Government especially as it concerned the first tenure of the 3R and Shared Prosperity administration.
The body which is an assemblage of professionals cutting across socioeconomic divide, passed the verdict over the weekend when they visited Gov. Uzodimma in his office.
Led by Chairman, Prof. Maurice Iwu, a former National Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the IEDI team said the visit was a follow up to their zoom meeting on Friday, March 1, 2024, where all the members, both within and outside the country, had the opportunity to evaluate the first four years of Uzodimma’s administration and suggested other measures to be considered that would help to deepen the foundation the Governor laid in his first tenure.
Prof. Iwu thanked Uzodimma on behalf of all their 40 members of different professional persuasions for finding time to receive the 10-member delegation detailed to interface and brief the Governor on the outcome of their expanded meeting as it concerns Governor Uzodimma’s second term socioeconomic policies.
He spoke on the readiness of his group, (IEDI) to continuously partner with the State Government, for the overall economic development of the State.
In his response, Gov. Uzodimma expressed gratitude to the group for the continuous support of the members to his administration and also his willingness to work in tandem with them to actualize the desired economic growth of Imo State.
