The Governor of Abia <\/a>State, Alex <\/a>Otti, has stated that he is not bothered about the 2027 election.<\/p>\n Speaking on Saturday when he worshipped at the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Umuikaa District headquarters, Isialangwa South LGA, he asserted that he would not be distracted by the 2027 election and is more focused on fixing Abia <\/a>State.<\/p>\n Otti expressed confidence that God would take care of 2027 election, adding that he is not distracted by the noise.<\/p>\n He said, \u201cI assure you that this government will continue to do the right thing. No one, or group of people, whoever they are, none of them is entitled to distract us.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cSo, when they make noise, like I said last week, we should not be bothered about noise.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe should just remain focused and do what we have to do.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cSo, sometimes, I worry if it is the 2027 election they are talking about, or maybe there\u2019s another election coming up.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cBut the same way God delivered 2023, that is the way he will deliver 2027 in Jesus\u2019 name.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Governor Otti, who responded to the request of the Church about the flooding and drainage challenge around the Church premises and its environs, directed that the Commissioner for Works extends the drainage work all the way down to the Umuikaa junction.<\/p>\n He apologised for the dust they are inhaling around the Umuikaa junction-Owerrinta road, saying that such inconveniences are part of things that go with development.<\/p>\n \u201cAs you can see, we are at the final stages of dualising this road. It is a Federal road, but we got approval from the Federal government to reconstruct and dualise the road.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cAnd as we are doing this, we are also doing the one from Onuimo to Tower. And the idea is that any time you get into Abia <\/a>State, you know you\u2019ve gotten into Abia <\/a>State,\u201d<\/em> Gov. Otti stated.<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, has stated that he is not bothered about the 2027 election.
