ADC’s Dennis C Ikpe Has Just Described Governor Alex Otti’s Development Model – By Pastor Prof. Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics
ADCs DENNIS C IKPE HAS JUST DESCRIBED GOVERNOR ALEX OTTI’S DEVELOPMENT MODEL 😂 Prof. Dennis Ikpe, what you wrote is exactly what Governor Alex Otti is already doing in Abia State. Otti is not merely constructing roads. He is using infrastructure to reopen commercial corridors, reduce transportation costs, revive abandoned business districts, attract private investment and create opportunities for traders, artisans, manufacturers and property owners. The reconstruction of Port Harcourt Road is not merely about asphalt. It is about restoring one of Aba’s major industrial and commercial corridors.

Road Contract Or Share Allocation? Haba Prof! Public Procurement Is Not A Family Share-Out – By Pastor Prof. Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Road Contract Or Share Allocation? Haba Prof! Public Procurement Is Not A Family Share-Out – By Pastor Prof. Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance
SERIOUSLY, PROFESSOR? 😳😂😂😂 A government constructs a major road, and your new measurement of success is: “How many Abians are on the board of Julius Berger?” Haba! Was the contract for road reconstruction or for the compulsory allocation of Julius Berger shares and board seats? 😂😂😂 By this strange economic theory, before Toyota supplies government vehicles, Abians must sit on Toyota’s board. Before Microsoft provides software, Abians must become Microsoft shareholders. Before an airline carries Abians, somebody from Obingwa must be appointed to its board! 😂😂😂 Let us conduct a small lecture. Public procurement is not ethnic wealth distribution. It…

Haha! Government Is A Continum. Must A Governor Demolish An Inherited Hospital Before Renovation Will Count? – By Pastor Prof. Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Entertainment
Haba! Government is a continuum, not a relay race where every new governor pretends the stadium was built yesterday! 😂😂😂 So because Governor Alex Otti renovated, upgraded and gave life to an abandoned or poorly maintained hospital, he must deny the history of the structure? What exactly is the crime here? 😂 Nobody says the building fell from heaven during Otti’s tenure. The real question is: what condition was it in, and what condition is it in today? Government projects belong to Abia State—not T.A. Orji, Ikpeazu, Chinwendu Kanu or Alex Otti personally. A responsible government inherits public assets, improves…
