The President of United Abia Artistes and Patriots Forum, UAAP, Ambassador Dr Osita Offor has commended Governor Alex Otti on the Infrastructural Development evident in his administration.
Lauding his progress on the development of Umuahia’s Capital city at a press conference held on Friday, Dr Osita stated that a visit to the Port Harcourt Road, Ngwa Road, Omuma Road and other locations showed the immense work going on in the State and the seriousness of the incumbent administration.
He maintained that the retrofitting of the Specialist Hospital in Umuahia, Amachara General Hospital and Abia State Teaching Hospital in Aba shows the commitment of the present administration towards lifting the face and outlook of the entire State.
While lauding the promptness in payment of salaries, Dr Osita posited that the N45,000 wage award received by the civil Servants is a testament to good stewardship and stated that there’s hope that the backlog of salaries and minimum wage will be addressed.
He warned against the ‘pull him down’ syndrome which has been exhibited by the opposition stating that the State’s progress is a collective responsibility and does not lie with the current administration.
He urged the opposition to offer solutions in its criticism and allow the public to assess their capacity for future elections and offer valuable ideas that may help the current administration course-correct where necessary.
While unveiling the organization’s logo, the group emphasized that the logo, representing peace and unity, urges everyone to prioritize Abia.
He expressed gratitude to Governor Otti for the current security measures that have brought safety to the State, particularly in the Umunneochi local government Area, which was previously plagued by kidnapping and robbery issues.
Lady Grace Ibeh further emphasized that the government, led by Alex Otti, is in its 14th month. She assured the people that the Governor will prioritize areas that have not been adequately worked on.
Among the personalities who attended the event were Dr Uduma Nnate, Honourable Ndukwe Akabueze, Elder Honourable Lawrence Obi, and others.
