Uzodimma has accused Abbas of promoting Ugochinyere to undermine him and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State.

Ugochinyere, a member of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was appointed as the chairman of the House Committee on Petroleum (Downstream).

In a statement released on Wednesday, Ugochinyere described the news report as an unsuccessful attempt to intimidate the Speaker of the House into taking directives from the Governor of Imo State.

He demanded a retraction of the statement from Uzodimma and an apology to the parliament, expressing concern that the newspaper publication sought to undermine the dignity and privileges of the legislature.

Ugochinyere also noted, “My attention has been drawn to newspaper reports obviously sponsored by the Imo State Government aimed at violating the privileges of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas.

Hope Uzodimma is now preaching loyalty to President Tinubu, this is the same President Tinubu, Hope Uzodimma promised to disgrace and spent huge resources financing Senator Ahmad Lawan in the failed childish attempt to disgrace at their party Primary.”
