Yesterday, I had a very great conversation with His Excellency, Dr Alex Otti, the Executive Governor of Abia State. I thanked His Excellency for his bold leadership, and most especially for what he is doing to fix the security challenges in the state.
Over the last few months, he has tried many playbooks and some of them are yielding results, like what we are seeing in the Lokpanta cattle market in Umunneochi LGA. For Abia State to thrive, security is key.
In Abia State, Mr. Governor is executing the playbooks. Of course, more work ahead because All ABIANS must rise with opportunities because we’re God’s Own People in a land of commerce and enterprise.

Someone’s Response: I guess you are truly expecting unrealistic and magical miracle within this short space this current govt has been in power. I feel your expectations within this time frame is rather uninformed.
Were you expecting out of blue developments, performance, industries, employments, jobs and investors, name them, to be immediate without laying foundations for these things to happen?
So cleaning up of Abia State, massive road constructions and networks, provision of security and protection of lives and properties and topnotch policy frameworks etc are not enough indications of the strategic direction of the current govt of Abia State?
As an investor, can you choose Abia State as an investment destination if the state is not secured, lives and properties are not protected?
Meanwhile, the Governor is achieving all these things including prompt and regular payment of state workers salaries and repayment of past governments’ loans with the limited state govt revenue that has over the decades much dependent on Federal govt allocation of which the past governments gave excuses and the current govt is changing that.
Please, our assessments should be fair, right and informed so that they don’t mislead others.
