Governor Alex Otti of Abia State on Sunday reaffirmed his commitment to fulfill all his campaign promises to Abians and residents.
In a Facebook post by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Ukoha Njoku Ukoha , Governor Otti made the assurance while speaking during the 70th birthday and 44th wedding anniversary of Sir and Lady Ibeh held at St. Finbars Catholic Church Bende Road, in Umuahia North LGA of Abia State.
According to Governor Otti, although the State is not where he wants it to be, the State has left where it was, saying that he was committed to fulfilling all his campaign promises to Abians.
He added that his administration has given Umuahia a facelift by fixing many potholes on different roads in the State Capital which has now eased traffic problems experienced in the past.
The Governor also stated that his administration has given entrance into the State Capital from Abia Tower an aesthetic look that befits a State Capital.
In his words, “We have just done 14 months and you can see that it is still early morning. Everything we had promised you during campaign, we will do them. We are not where we want to be but we have left where we used to be”.
“One thing you can take to the bank is that this Government will not disappoint you”, Governor Otti declared.
Otti also reminded the people that his administration’s focus is anchored on the welfare of the people which was part of the reasons he cleared the backlog of arrears owed pensioners by the previous administration and restored full payment of pension to pensioners in the State who now receive their pensions alongside civil servants who are paid on or before the 28th of every month.
He used the opportunity to thank the Church for their support and offering themselves as instrument to bring about purposeful change in the State.
