What we need is to move ahead. We are brothers and sisters, there must be peace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can only have one governor in a state and you can only have one final court and that is the Supreme Court. We have to accept it. For me, politics is not a do or die affair. It\u2019s give-and-take. The Supreme Court has given its judgment, either good or bad, I have accepted it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat matters is Imo State. I\u2019ve said in my statement, whoever wins at the Supreme Court, I will give my support, be it Emeka Ihedioha, Araraume or Uzodinma, I will support but in supporting, if you do well, I will praise, if you don\u2019t, we would criticise you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have no regret at all. It\u2019s not my first time of running for a political position. I\u2019m a politician and town planner by profession.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor now, politics is over pending when there would be another election.
