Popular actor, Ejike Asiegbu has apologised to Imo State governor, Hope Uzodinma for dragging him on social media.

He said: “I most respectfully apologise on behalf of my colleague Uchenna Maduka to my brother, friend, elder statesman, and governor, Chief Dr. Hope Uzodinma for the embarrassment this video may have caused him.”

“Let me state for the records that we are men and women of honour and integrity. We are not swayed by apples and carrots as Mr. Oguwike has maliciously adduced.”

For those who don’t know, actress Uche Nnanna-Maduka had in a video on social media attacked Governor Uzodinma over a power outage at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport in Imo.

She said: “They said we have to claim our luggage at the compound because there is no light at Imo Airport. This is Nigeria in 2024. This is wrong and unacceptable.”

“Who is ruling this state? What are we doing? In 2024 no lights at the airport. Imo State, shame on you. See our Sam Mbakwe Airport. Hope Uzodinma, look at us.”

Other actors seen in the video are Ejike Asiegbu, Fred Amata, Gloria Nobert Young, Grace Amah and Keppy Ekpenyong.
