A renowned economist and Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Alex Otti OFR has congratulated the winner of the just concluded House of Representatives bye-election in Aba, Mr Chimobi Ebisike of the PDP on his victory at the polls.
In a release made available to the press, Otti urged Mr Ebisike to see his victory as an opportunity to impact positively on the lives of his constituents through quality representation and expressed joy that despite the hot verbal exchanges that preceded the election, both the candidates and their supporters still ensured that there was no breakdown of law and order which gave room for the emergence of a winner devoid of objections from his opponents.
According to the ex-bank Chief “After election comes to the task of governance, therefore I would like to urge you to see the pre-election verbal engagements and disagreements within the context of political campaigns and ensure that you carry your constituents along across political divides so that you could have a supportive constituency”
Finally, Dr Otti appealed to youths in the state to refrain from any act capable of causing a breach of the peace, insisting that the present economic situation across the country makes it more dangerous for any state to witness any form of crisis.
