Gov. Dr Alex Otti Flags Off Construction Of 11km Road In Abia North

Yesterday was a historic day for the good people of Isuikwuato as we celebrated the flag-off of the 11.5-km Nunya-Eluama-Ogboro Road project. The project will be executed by the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) and we have their assurances that it will be completed within twelve (12) months. This venture is a pathway for connecting communities and fostering economic growth and prosperity.
 
Our vision for Abia State is clear: to create a safe, secure, and prosperous environment for all. The New Abia Project is our social contract with Abians, focusing on public infrastructure that attracts investment and generates employment.
 
For our diligent farmers and vendors, this road heralds an era of development and advancement. In about a year, the ease of transporting goods will boost trade and provide better returns on their labour. The road will boost man-hours and also reduce travel time for those driving from the Port Harcourt/Aba/Owerri axis through Akara, Alayi, and other neighbouring communities who may not want to use the Umuahia-Uzuakoli route.
 
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Engr. Don Otumchere Oti, our Commissioner for Works, and his team. Their relentless efforts in steering our infrastructure projects are invaluable. Special thanks to Air Vice Marshall Chiwendu Onyike (Mayor of Isuikwuato L.G.A), Lt. General Azubuike O. Ihejirika (Rtd) and other great sons and daughters of Isuikwuato who turned up for the event. Together, we are ensuring that every project, including the Eluama-Nunya Road, meets our high standards and serves the best interests of Abians.
 
Remember, each one of us plays a crucial role in the New Abia Project. By fulfilling our civic duties, like paying taxes, we fuel the progress of our state. Your contributions are the engine of our development, and I assure you that they will be managed with the utmost integrity.
 
Let us continue to work hand in hand, by building the Abia of our dreams. #NewAbiaProject
