The Governor of Abia State, Dr Alex Otti, has assured residents and users of the long abandoned Uratta road in Aba North local government area of the state, that his administration would soon flag-off reconstruction work on the road.
Gov. Otti also disclosed that work would soon commence on the recovery of Old Express in Aba, the commercial nerve of the state.
Gov. Otti said that it was part of his moves to fully recover Aba from the years of ruins and decays that strangled the socio-economic progress of the Enyimba City.
Otti disclosed this at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Abayi Ariaria, Aba, during an unannounced visit to the church.
According to Otti, “We have been trying to recover Aba and I think that we have recovered Aba. But there is still some work to do. So, very soon, we will flag-off the reconstruction of Uratta Road.
“And, as we are flagging-off the reconstruction of Uratta Road, we are also flagging-off the reconstruction of Old Express Road.
“And, you can be sure it will be done the same way we do our things, very solid; by solid construction companies,” the Governor stated.
Speaking further, the State Chief Executive said, “I’m sure that very soon, we will complete those, so that we can complete the full recovery of Aba,” Gov. Otti added.
Governor Otti who expressed dissatisfaction with the low number of votes that normally come out from Aba during electioneering, charged the people to go and register in the ongoing continuous voters registration exercise and also mobilize their families, friends, and neighbours to also register to vote.
“I want to appeal to you, if you see the number in Aba and the number of votes that come out from Aba, it’s like darkness and daylight. So, I want to charge you, if you have not registered, please go and register.
“It is important; the only way you can ensure that we don’t go back to Egypt is for you to vote. You cannot vote if you are not registered.
