Receiving the materials,
Governor Hope Uzodimma who was
represented by the Head of Administration and Finance, Government House, Mrs Julia Ukaigwe thanked
NIMASA for "coming to the assistance of the State at this moment when it
needs such assistance most."
She said: "This is a very critical time in the life of
every government, especially Imo State that faced so many challenges including
that of insecurity."
She expressed gratitude of the State and emphasised that it
has become necessary because “Government cannot not do it alone.”
She noted that the government of Imo State under Uzodimma has put in a lot to alleviate the
sufferings of Imolites who were caught in the web of the unfortunate crises in
the State, but still needs all necessary
assistance from individuals and corporate bodies to further reach those not yet
covered.
She thanked NIMASA again for the gesture and wished the organisation well.
Lady Agnes Ajoku of the State Emergency Management Agency, SEMA,
in the office of the Secretary to Government of Imo State joined Mrs Ukaigwe in
