I have always believed in the timeless truth that God makes all things beautiful in His time. Indeed, Ikwuano and Abia State have been remembered by the Almighty. He is blessing us incrementally through our dear Governor, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, a man destined to restore pride, progress, and prosperity to our people.
Come Friday, 24th October, His Excellency will flag off the construction of the Umuahia-Ikwuano-Ikot Ekpene Road and the Ariam-Usaka Ring Road, both monumental and long-awaited projects within Ikwuano Local Government Area.
Many will recall that during the Thanksgiving Program organized by the Awomukwu Community in honor of Chief David Alaribe, the former ICAN President and I, I passionately presented these critical road projects before His Excellency. I also humbly mentioned the Ariam-Usaka Ring Road as part of our people’s earnest request. I promised then that if these projects were actualized, the people of Ikwuano would, without hesitation, stand solidly behind him in gratitude and loyalty, including our 4 + 4 God’s project.
Today, that promise is becoming reality. The eagle has perched – “Ugo eberila la mgba gbu!”
WE therefore call upon all sons and daughters of Ikwuano, both at home and in the diaspora, to come out en masse to welcome our visionary Governor to Ikwuano next Friday.
It shall be a day of rejoicing, singing, and dancing, for God has finally remembered Ikwuano! With the Ikwuano-Ikot Ekpene Road now taken over from the previous incompetent contractor, we can be confident of quality delivery and timely completion of this long-awaited project, first initiated in 2019.
We thank God for Dr. Alex Chioma Otti – Chioma Ndi Abia, Ugwu Ndi Abia, the chosen one, the man of destiny, and indeed, the people’s Governor!
Let us unite as one family to welcome His Excellency, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, Executive Governor of Abia State, to Ikwuano on this historic day of transformation.
Come one, come all!
Abia Kwenu! Ikwuano Kwezuo nu!
