A coalition of former Abia State governors, legislators, and political appointees who served between 1999 and 2023 has announced plans to institute legal action against Governor Alex Otti over his continued operation from a private residence in Nvosi, Isiala Ngwa South Local Government Area, ABN TV reports.

The decision was reached at the group’s second meeting held at the residence of former Abia State governor, Theodore Orji, where members resolved to compel the governor to relocate official activities to the Government House in Umuahia.

Among those listed as members of the group are former governors Orji Uzor Kalu, Theodore Orji, and Okezie Ikpeazu, alongside other past political office holders.

In a communique issued after the meeting on Friday, the group stated that the planned lawsuit is aimed at enforcing what it described as the proper use of official government facilities.

“A lawsuit should be instituted compelling Governor Alex Otti to operate from the Government House, Umuahia,” the communique read.

The communique, which was read by a former media aide in the Abia State Government, Victor Ike Oye, expressed strong dismay that Governor Otti is still conducting state business from his personal residence rather than the officially designated Government House.

Beyond the legal threat, the group also declared its readiness to mobilize politically for the re-election of President Bola Tinubu. It further expressed gratitude to the President for nominating one of its members, former Governor Okezie Ikpeazu, for an ambassadorial appointment.

The development adds a new dimension to the political discourse in Abia State, as the controversy over the governor’s operating base now appears headed for the courts.

Do you know how much the so called working remotely is costing the state even though it's his personal residence?
Do you know how much he spends on foods even though it's his personal residence?

Obaseki and oshiomole ruled Edo state from private residence. Mad people everywhere

It’s against the constitution but seeing them react this way shows they are against Otti.
