The governorship candidate of the Action Peoples Party (APP) in Abia state, Chief Mascot Uzor Kalu, has promised that his administration would ensure that he connects the rural communities to the urban areas if elected the governor of the state.
Kalu, a former Chief of Staff in the state during a tour of ABSIEC wards in Abiriba, the Enachioken Ancient Kingdom in Ohafia L.G.A stated that his desire was to turn Abia into a vibrant trade hub as he plans to open up more economic opportunities for business growth.
Chief Kalu, who is a born businessman, recalling his findings in Ikwuano, which is a polycentric area, assured the people of Abiriba, who are known for their trading enterprises, that his government will enhance the movement of goods and services by opening the interconnected roads of the rural-urban centers.
The APP guber candidate whose campaign mantra is “Making Abia Great Again” said “Last week I was in Ikwuano, and I found that it has boundaries with Aba, Isiala Ngwa, Bende, Arochukwu, Akwa Ibom, and Cross River. So you can see that such a place can become a trade hub if such access roads are opened up.
“My administration will focus on opening up the access roads in such a way that, for instance, farm produce and other goods and services can seamlessly move from Abiriba to Nkporo; Igbere to Abiriba; Abiriba to Ohafia; and Ohafia to Arochukwu for trading.”
Five ABSIEC wards in Abiriba: Amaogudu 1 and 2;
Ameke 1 and 2; and
Agborji turned out en masse to receive the APP governorship candidate and his entourage.
