In line with his campaign promise of attacking infrastructural decay in Abia State, the executive governor of the state, Dr Alex Otti, OFR, has commissioned three roads in Aba, the commercial city of the state.
The governor while commissioning the roads namely; Shalom road, Emelogu road and Cemetery road, assured that work will soon commence in full force on the long abandoned Port Harcourt -Aba road as the state government has gotten a strong signal from the federal government.
Otti restated his commitment to boost the economy of the state by constructing accessible and durable roads, ICT hubs, recreational facilities, among others.
“Roads are great economic enablers …. the world needs to know that Aba is back as a great hub of commerce. We will build the best roads, hotels, hospitals, markets, and turn Aba into the best ecosystem.

“Aba will never be the same again” governor Otti pledged.
