It has proximity to Airports (Owerri, PortHacourt and Uyo). It has functional gas pipelines and boarder Owaza gas fields. It is transversed by existing National Rail line, PortHacourt - Maiduguri etc.
The key pillars of Enyimba Economic City is to create a global business hub that connects the nine (9) Southeast and Southsouth States, build first class infrastructure in the location, including dedicated power and attract economic activities that are mainly driven by manufacturing and supported by other uses e.g. Logistics, Medical, Entertainment, Education, LifestyleResidential etc.

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Abia women from the 17 local governments of the state gathered in Umuahia, yesterday, to pray for the landslide victory of Governor Okezie Ikpeazu in the 2019 Governorship election.

The women who were led in various intercessory prayers by the Wife of Abia State Governor, Deaconess Nkechi Ikpeazu, called on God to grant the Governor landslide victory and release his angels to ensure a peaceful election in the state devoid of violence and rancor.

The women who called on God to disappoint any politician seeking to use Abia Youths as political thugs during the election, include the wife of the Senator Representing Abia Central Constituency in the red chamber of the National Assembly, Chief (Mrs) Odochi Orji, wife of the Deputy Governor of Abia State, Lady Vivian Ude Oko Chukwu, Wife of the Speaker of Abia State House of Assemby, Mrs Gloria Kanu, Wife of the Deputy Speaker, Mrs Ndidi Cosmas Ndukwe, wife of the former Head of State, HE Mrs Victoria Aguiyi Ironsi, Commissioners for Special Duties Mrs Precious Achumba and Mrs Elizabeth Uhuegbu, wives of pastors from various denominations in Abia State and all church women leaders.

Mrs Ikpeazu is the convener of the annual Abia Prayer Summit program.

As Abia women don fire prayers against the enemies of Abia State, come 2019 Dr Okezie Victor Chibuikem Ikpeazu is returned elected.

Osisoma flyover is over 90% done. Ikpeazu humbled humbled himself and went to Engr. Umahi to learn and he delivered a classy flyover

Abia governor is wise by keying into the nearby PH airport for a FTZ instead of embarking on airport project wich may never materialize
