The Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex C.

The project, which had been neglected by past administrations for decades, marks a significant milestone in the Otti-led administration’s commitment to strategic development.
Prominent Abia North stakeholder, Dr. Desmond Chima Anyaso, was among those present at the flag-off ceremony. Taking to his social media handle, Anyaso applauded Governor Otti’s leadership, emphasizing that the project would greatly enhance commerce, transportation, and connectivity in the region.
“For decades, successive governments ignored this crucial infrastructure despite its terrible state and economic significance. But today, Governor Otti has demonstrated true leadership by not just making promises but taking real action,” Anyaso stated.

According to him, the bridge serves as the only link between Abam and Bende, making its reconstruction vital to economic and social activities in the area. He hailed the governor for his visionary approach to governance, which prioritizes infrastructure, healthcare, and economic growth.
Beyond the bridge construction, Governor Otti also announced plans to build a General Hospital in Arochukwu, which will serve as a critical healthcare facility for residents. Additionally, he revealed that a major road project in Abam is set to commence soon, reinforcing his administration’s commitment to improving road infrastructure across the state.
Dr. Anyaso described these projects as a new dawn for the people of Abia North, stressing that Governor Otti is setting a new standard for leadership in the state.
“There is time for politics, and there is time for leadership. This is the time for leadership, and Dr. Alex Otti is proving that with action,” Anyaso concluded.
With the commencement of these transformational projects, expectations are high among residents, business owners, and commuters, who anticipate better infrastructure, improved healthcare services, and enhanced economic opportunities in the coming months.
