The Director-General of the World Trade Organisation, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has charged the Abia Governor-elect, Dr Alex Otti, to run clean and transparent governance.


Okonjo-Iweala said the incoming government should focus on “disruptive strategies rather than traditional operational systems”.

She gave the charge in a speech she presented virtually at the inauguration of the 100-member 2023 Abia Transition Council held in Aba, Abia’s economic hub.


She said: “I told the governor-elect that everything we will do would depend on this governance.

“Nigerians, especially from that side of the South-East, have lost faith in governance.

“They no longer believe the government can provide anything for them.

“They provide for themselves boreholes, electricity and every other thing for themselves.

“Although that is entrepreneurial, on the other hand, that is not how to run the place,” the Nigeria-born economic expert said.


She urged Otti to run a “better and cleaner governance” and transparent governance that should be exemplary.

Okonjo-Iweala also urged Abia citizens abroad, who have the capacity to assist in recovering the state and upgrade development, to return and help out.

She expressed the hope that through Otti, “there is a unique chance to set Abia on the right side of development and modernisation through disruptive digital technology”.


She advised the governor-elect to think of how to make Abia function in line with the modern world and join the train into the future of humanity.

Nice woman
God will bless you
God bless Abia state

What Agenda did she set when she was Goatluck Jonathan's staff running the economy to debt?

She was the Minister of Finance under Olusegun Obasanjo. She advised Obasanjo to pay off all the debts that the looters before Obasanjo acquired. And Obasanjo paid the debts.

This same woman was the Minister of Finance under Goatluck Jonathan and she acquired more loans than was paid off under Obasanjo. How do we place this?

Later the useless Almajari from Katshina now turned loans to gifts and started getting loans every month.

She's right about the South East losing faith in the government. However, I strongly believe that Alex Otti will deliver. The best thing that can happen to a state is to have a governor who has no godfather.

All these SW APC goons sef

Where was she when abia was looted dry by PDP ...madam go and sit down

Alex Otti is under pressure to deliver positively...I pray he doesn't disappoint like Rochas did...who enjoyed similar goodwill but got intoxicated by power, lost focus...selfish aggrandizement set in...and rest is history



Rochas wouldn't have been so bad if he remained in APGA because he will be under pressure to keep measuring up against fellow APGA state... unfortunately, he went to APC and met men dirtier than him and they upgraded their filth and dirts...None was a conscience or check to the other


Stay focused Alex Otti...keep less politicians and praise singers around.... always interact directly with masses or grassroot... GOODLUCK

Nice one, charity begins at home

God bless Abia State

God bless Southeast


God bless Umuigbo

I don't know why these haters are wailing. SE is on another level. I like the word "disruptive" instead of traditional methods. Igbos have left all of them behind
