A pressure Igbo group, Igbo Union/Nzuko Ndi Igbo has called on President Bola Tinubu to foster synergy with some state governors who are delivering dividends of democracy to the people in their respective states
The socio-cultural group, in a statement in Abuja, signed by its Convener, Prince Elias Odoemena, singled out Governor Alex Otti of Abia State, whom he said has impacted on the people of Abia State through the provision of dividends of democracy in the state in the area human capital developments, provision of road infrastructure, building of hospitals, health centres, electricity, among others
According to the group’s convener, President Tinubu should, as a matter of statesmanship, continuously make Gov Otti and other of his colleagues in some states, reference points to political leaders irrespective of party affiliations.
The group said, “Governor Otti and some governors are seriously delivering dividends of democracy in their respective states, thereby following the footsteps of our great president, who has been a touch-bearer on issue of delivery of democracy dividends.
Prince Odomena, added that such democratic milestones in some states especially in Abia state couldn’t have been possible if not the political ingenuity of Tinubu, who opened the doors for state governments to have more money in their treasuries, and the doggedness and economic savvy of state governors, who have made serious political and economic differences in their respective states, where the people are now feeing the dividends of democracy fully.
He lauded Governor Otti for raising the bar in governance in the last two years and turning Abia state as the most secured state in the country to transact business, with modern infractructure laid provided in various towns in the state .
“Governor Alex Otti has raised the bar of governance in Nigeria higher and turned Abia State to be one of the most secured States to do business in Nigeria with huge infrastructure development through one of his secret moves known as Each day Many Projects Move; development initiatives which have finished more than two hundred projects under two years in office.’
Prince Odoemena stated that despite all these achievements of the governor, those anti development persons and failed politicians from the state, will continue to be a clog on the wheels of progress in the state by their unfounded criticisms of the policies of the state governor.
He urged the governor not to be distracted by such utterances of failed politicians, but should rather be more focused in his drive to make Abia state a number one stop in all human development indexes.
Prince Odoemena told President Tinubu to query some state governors who are not performing in delivering dividends of democracy to their people, insisting that this would absolve him of all blames.
