In a statement by the PDP State Publicity Secretary, Lancelot Obiaku, the party expressed outrage at the continuing loss of lives and damage to public facilities, calling the violence unjustifiable and an affront to the state’s values. “We commiserate with the victims’ families and the people of Imo who have been plunged into sorrow by these heartless acts,” Obiaku said. The PDP further criticized Governor Hope Uzodinma and his APC-led administration for their failure to take proactive steps in addressing the growing insecurity. The party accused the governor of being indifferent to the violence, which has led to a normalization of bloodshed and terror in the state. According to Obiaku, the government’s focus on party politics, including secret primary elections, while the state faces crisis, reflects a disturbing disconnect from the suffering of its citizens.
