Abia indigenes in Lagos praise Gov. T.A Orji...

Abia State indigenes have praised Governor Theodore Orji for developing the state.They spoke at a Town Hall meeting in Lagos on friday.

The governor reviewed his administration’s achievements in many sectors, including education, health, agriculture, security, electrification, housing and poverty alleviation. He said development had followed the restoration of peace, security and unity among the political class in the last five years.

Orji, who was accompanied by the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Ude Chukwu, commissioners, special advisers and other top officials, received accolades from prominent indigenes, including Gen. Ike Nwachukwu (rtd), Prof. Anya O.Anya and former deputy governor, Acho Nwakanma, for making unity, peace and development his priority.

Senator Nwachukwu, who chaired the meeting, noted that Orji assumed the reins after 10 years of bad governance, urging the indigenes to support him to succeed.
Anya advised the people of Abia State to donate their ideas and professionalism to the administration.

The foremost scientist added: “We want Abia to be number one state because it has the potentials to be number one. We need peace in Abia. If there is no peace, there will be no development. By bringing peace to Abia, we now glady go to the state, unlike before. The achievements being recorded now were not possible in the past.
“There were ideas, but there was loss of focus and priority. We should harness our brain power for Abia’s development. Tinubu and Fashola make use people like Joe Igbokwe, an Igbo, to develop Lagos. There was no achievement recorded by Obasanjo without Igbo’s input. The people of Abia should contribute their ideas. Let Abia people invest 10 percent of their resources in the state and you will see changes”.

The speaker said Orji deserved support because of his sincerity and sense of mission, stressing that his developmental projects and social relations had united the state and change its perception as violence-prone area.
He said: “In the past, Abia was in the news for bad reasons, especially kidnapping. But God has used the governor to restore security and it is now the safest state in Nigeria. he has constructed 75 roads, five-star hotel, new ultra-modern Government House. We members of the House are seen as performers because the governor is doing well.”

Another indigene, Chief Vincent Maduka, said: “Governor Orji is an agent of transformation”, urging him not to relent in his developmental efforts.
The governor said his administration’s achievements were made possible because of the cabinet of talents he assembled, following his ascension into office.
He added: “Abia is now working. Before now, eminent indigenes shunned the state because enemies of Abia invaded the media, fueling embers of disunity. But we won the battle of confidence. Abia is now free from kidnapping, bad roads, failed politicians and rejected actors who were behind the beer parlour rumour mongers.
‘The peace reigning in the state today is unprecedented. It is because we fought criminality and kidnapping which prevented people from coming home. Having achieved peace and unity, development followed. Abia became a huge construction site. Kidnappers fled from sites.”
