Governor Ihedioha to review Imo laws – TheNigerialawyer

Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha, has commenced process to
review all laws made in the state by the State House of
Assembly.

The governor, who has set up a Committee to review the laws,
said that the review is to strengthen the laws and make them in
tandem with the expectations and desires of the people of the
State.

Speaking at a retreat for members-elect of the Imo State House
of Assembly in Oguta on Tuesday, Ihedioha said the Committee, which
will be headed by the Imo Chief Judge, Justice Pascal Nnadi, will
harmonise all laws enacted by the State House of Assembly to give
the state a new beginning.

The governor charged the members-elect to be abreast of their
responsibilities, stressing that he does not intend to run a
propaganda government, but a government based on rule of law and
due process.

According to him: “As a government, we will take a radical
departure from the past. I will not run a government of propaganda,
but one anchored on due process and rule and so you must be ready
to do your work. I will fire you with executive bills and we must
adhere strictly to the budgetary process.”

He said the orientation programme presents an opportunity to
begin to get to know one another as colleagues in the Assembly and
to also learn about their powers, roles and duties.
