Speaking on the outcome of the Presidential election held Nationwide on February 25th 2023 he noted with deep concern that the youths are becoming restive, pointing out that electoral Commission should be blamed for the negative reactions of aggrieved voters over what they perceive as a stolen madate at the end of the poll in the country.

The LP Chieftain stated that, “The Arch Bishop of Canterbury, the United States of America and the entire international Community have been talking and soon these people would be denied entrance into those country as a result of what they did at the election ”
Uzodike lamented that the results announced by INEC were a manifestation of the day light robbery of the Nigerian people.
“Look at Gombe and Bauchi states having the same results for all the three major Presidential candidates and in the PDP situation room in Lagos State showed that Labour Party won with more than 900,000 votes but in our own situation room we got 1.23 million votes ”
“In Rivers state Labour won land slide, almost all the votes were won by Labour Party and they messed everything up. Look at Ekiti state where what was uploaded was later wiped out and Labour Party got over 85,000 votes and they gave it to APC that actually got 13,000 votes ”
“The whole thing is manifest because it would seem like business as usual and collations made in most states were done in people’s houses and they were done by fake agents” he added.
