The Governor was speaking when he received in audience a team from the office of the National Security Adviser led by Barr. Abdullahi Bello who were in the State for an official visit.

The Governor said that, “all efforts towards a safe, peaceful and secured Abia may not be in the public domain, all that matters is the results being achieved.

Governor Otti said that his administration attaches top priority to issues of security. He noted that the most important part of governance is security, adding that if security fails every other thing fails.

Governor Otti who welcomed members of the team to Abia State said that the visit provides opportunity for both parties to learn from one another.

Speaking earlier, the leader of the delegation, Barr. Abdullahi Bello said that they were in the state for “victim impact assessment.” He commended Governor Otti for his various achievements, especially in the areas of infrastructure and security.
