“I want to reiterate my earlier promise that I will adopt the entire state as my constituency.

“I am also committed to upholding fairness, equity and justice in handling the affairs of the state,” Ihedioha promised.

Vanguard reports that Ihedioha commended the diocesan bishop, Rt Rev Chamberlain Ogunedo, the priests and laity for organizing the thanksgiving service.

“As a soldier of Christ, I shall remain a good ambassador of the Anglican communion,” he said while describing his victory as “a victory for democracy in Imo state.”

“It was reassuring that the people of Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe collectively voted massively for me,” the governor-elect said as he promised not to disappoint the people of the state.

He also promised to uphold the principles of fairness, equity and justice for all in the state.

The report added that Ihedioha has set up his inauguration planning committee ahead of his official swearing-in ceremony.

Chibuike Onyeukwu, the media aide to the governor-elect said this in a statement in Owerri, the capital of the state.

The committee has Chris Okewulonu as the chairman; Jones Onyereri as its deputy chairman and Ray Emeana as the sectary.
