Otti pledges good governance for Abia State


The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Abia State, Dr Alex Otti has vowed to put good government in place if elected governor in Feb­ruary 2015.
Otti made the declaration at a reception organized in his honour by the Umunneo­chi community on Thursday at the Unity Square in Nkwo- Agu Amuda, Isuochi where a mammoth crowd gathered to receive him as a mark of their support to him for the gover­norship race.

The APGA gubernatorial flag bearer in the state de­cried the state of roads and other infrastructural facili­ties across the state , promis­ing that his government will construct motorable roads in Isuochi and other parts of the state if elected, adding that road construction is part of his Master plan for a com­prehensive development of Abia state.
The master plan he fur­ther stressed, will also focus on human capital develop­ment to fully tap the brain of a large pool of intelligent and hardworking people that need just the basic necessities of life to bring out their best and succeed.
“What Abians need is good schools, water, good roads, employment oppor­tunities, good and friendly environment for their busi­nesses to thrive. All these we will give you if you vote for APGA in all the elections in the state which include the Governorship, House of Assembly, House of Rep­resentatives and the Sen­ate. Otti however stated the presidential election would be the only exception where he stated the votes should go to President Goodluck Jona­than of the PDP”, He stated.
Otti advised the people of Isuochi not to be deceived by the gimmicks of the incum­bent Governor to anoint a successor who will not only be a puppet that will do the master’s bid, but also help in taking Abia State 20 years backwards.
“I don’t have any prob­lems with a candidate be­ing anointed but where the anointing is coming from a person rather than the peo­ple is what I have problems with. Especially consider­ing the woeful performance in the past seven and half years by the incumbent Governor and at such, lacks every moral right to anoint a successor.
“Even the so called anointed candidate failed in the only assignment that was given to him to keep Aba, our commercial nerve cen­tre clean as the Abia State Environmental Protection Agency (ASEPA) deputy chairman. How do you think he will be able to take Abia as a whole to the next level?, Otti queried.
The APGA flag bearer stated that the only condition evil will triumph over good is for good men to keep qui­et, saying that Abia will be a failed state if we allow ‘them’ for the next four years.
