A group of committed Abia democrats known as G17 has endorsed the governorship ambition of the Labour Party Governorship candidate, Dr. Alex Otti OFR, describing him as the most acceptable and suitable candidate for the 2023 governorship election in Abia state whose choice is such an easy decision to make because of his pedigree and passion to serve the state.
The group made the endorsement when they visited the ex-bank Chief at his Umuru Nvosi country home in Isialangwa South LGA of the state.
Speaking through its leader and an illustrious son of the state Dr. Cliff Agbaeze, the group described Dr. Otti as an amiable personality with proven track record of sound accomplishments which serve as an inspiration to Abians, coupled with the unquestionable passion and commitment he has consistently shown in his desire to help the state overcome years of bad governance, and promised to strongly support Dr. Otti’s ambition as his victory would serve the general interest and wellbeing of Abians.
The group whose membership is drawn from the 17 LGAs of the state subsequently endorsed Dr. Otti and promised to mobilize Abians across the 17 LGAs to support and massively vote for him.
Responding, the highly elated candidate of the Labour party Dr. Alex Otti expressed joy that more and more Abians were beginning to show unprecedented interest in the affairs of their state and commended G17 for the bold decision to endorse him and promised to redouble effort in ensuring that a new Abia would be heralded in 2023.
He restated that the governorship was not about him, but about Abia citizens who have been relegated, left behind and made to suffer unjustly in the midst of abundance, and enjoined them to go to every nook and cranny of Abia and convert more Abians to join them in the project, assuring that he was poised to ensuring that Abians would sing a new song of joy in 2023.
