Mr. President, Mr. Governor, We Want The Light Rail System in Abia State

Mr. President. My Governor. It is not going to be an easy task, but we believe. Yes, “Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has unveiled an ambitious plan to revolutionize transportation infrastructure with the proposal of a groundbreaking light rail construction project spanning the entirety of the state. This significant announcement comes hot on the heels of the inauguration of the 181-megawatt Geometric Power plant in Aba, the bustling commercial hub of Abia State.”

“Currently, the designs for the light rail project are in the process of being developed. We will move from there to address commercial issues, and at the end of the day, we will do it,” Otti asserted with confidence.

The proposed light rail project is poised to usher in a new era of economic development and connectivity for Abia State, which has long grappled with infrastructural deficits under previous administrations.

Meanwhile, Governor Otti has declared an end to the era of chronic power outages in the state following the recent commissioning of the 181-megawatt Geometric Power plant in Aba.

“Power outage will be the exception rather than the rule,” Otti declared emphatically during the interview, underscoring the transformative impact of the power generation milestone on the lives of Abia State residents.

How can these men make this happen in Abia? The power of vision. In January this year, I rode the Isuikwuato -Umuahia road; it was in bad shape. Today, the update now is that the road is being rebuilt, connecting all the way to Arochukwu. But imagine if we use trains as we used to do, from Ovim to Umuahia to Aba?

Let me leave this for Mr. President and Mr. Governor. #NigeriaMustWork. #AbiaMustWork. #believe.
