You have the right to be hurt anyway.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, because you are Mr. Know All you still cannot imagine how Governor Uzodinma has reduced yourself acclaimed political \u201cwisdom\u201d to ignorance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernor Uzodinma believes in the rule of law like the APC and has not hidden his respect for the judiciary as a critical organ for national development and survival of Nigeria\u2019s democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Governor Uzodinma were to be you, he would not have followed through all the processes he painstakingly adopted to emerge the governor of Imo State on Januray 14, 2020, and reaffirmed Governor on March 3, 2020 after you worked so hard to truncate the judgment of the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut unfortunately, you have continued to denigrate the Supreme Court that adjudicated over Governor Uzodinma\u2019s case by carelessly and arrogantly describing the ruling of the Apex Court as synonymous with fraud.
