Otti’s Rising Abia And The Desperate Cries Of The Children Of Baal – By Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D (SSA To Governor Otti On Public Affairs)

Otti’s Rising Abia And The Desperate Cries Of The Children Of Baal – By Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D (SSA To Governor Otti On Public Affairs)

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics
Otti’s Rising Abia and the Desperate Cries of the Children of Baal By Ebere Uzoukwa, PhD In the Bible, the children of Baal were known for their stubbornness, deceit, and resistance to truth. They clung to false altars and fought bitterly against righteousness until divine judgment silenced them. That same spirit seems to have resurfaced in today’s Abia, embodied by those who spread lies, blackmail, and propaganda against Governor Alex Chioma Otti, OFR. Like their biblical counterparts, they rage not because of injustice, but because truth and light have displaced their long reign of darkness, deceit, and corruption. Their lamentations…

Beyond The Lekki Illusion: Aba’s Real Manufacturing Might Humiliates Lagos’ Paper Economy – By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Beyond The Lekki Illusion: Aba’s Real Manufacturing Might Humiliates Lagos’ Paper Economy – By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Business, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Economy
Beyond the Lekki Illusion: Aba's Real Manufacturing Might Humiliates Lagos' Paper Economy The narrative of "Lagos Boiled by Igbo Economy" and the potential for Aba to rival China in West Africa is not merely entrepreneurial aspiration; it is a story underscored by official data and a telling political context. The failure of President Bola Tinubu to personally commission the new projects of monumental significance for the industrial revival of the South-East, on multiple scheduled occasions may speak volumes to ignorant minds, but stop and ponder for a second. This perceived snub, whether logistical or political, stands in stark contrast to…

A Jurisprudential Anatomization Of Political Atavism – By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

A Jurisprudential Anatomization Of Political Atavism – By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance
A Jurisprudential Anatomization of Political Atavism The cacophony emanating from the purveyors of yesterday’s malaise, those erstwhile lords of our collective patrimony, constitutes a veritable symphony of intellectual bankruptcy. Their dissenting murmurs against the Otti administration, founded on the quicksand of spurious allegations regarding fiscal management, have been rendered not merely obsolete but judicially preposterous by the recent encomiums from the European Union and UNICEF. These global arbiters of probity have undertaken a forensic audit of Abia's budgeting ethos and returned a verdict of res ipsa loquitur—the thing speaks for itself. While the opposition engages in a pre-Socratic level of…

Benjamin Kalu’s Obsession With Abia’s Allocation – By Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D (SSA To Governor Otti On Public Affairs)

Benjamin Kalu’s Obsession With Abia’s Allocation – By Ebere Uzoukwa, Ph.D (SSA To Governor Otti On Public Affairs)

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Politics
Benjamin Kalu’s Obsession with Abia’s Allocation By Ebere Uzoukwa, PhD Benjamin Kalu, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives and member representing Bende Federal Constituency, appears to have developed an unrelenting obsession with Abia State’s statutory allocations. His recent outburst, in which he falsely claimed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been “releasing N38 billion monthly to Abia State,” exposes a troubling mix of ignorance, political mischief, and deliberate distortion of facts. What makes Kalu’s fixation even more disappointing is that the figures he bandies about are not hidden; they are publicly available on the official website of the…

Oshiomhole stated this during an appearance on on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics, Presidency
2027: Dangote–Otti Presidential Ticket Will Rescue Nigeria – APC Chieftain A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former governorship candidate in Kebbi State, Mallam Salihu Isa Nataro, has urged Nigerians to consider a potential presidential ticket pairing Africa’s richest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, with Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, as a pathway to restoring economic stability and driving industrial growth ahead of the 2027 elections. Speaking in Abuja on Sunday, Nataro said a Dangote–Otti ticket would provide the kind of economic leadership needed to tackle unemployment, reduce poverty, and promote nationwide industrialisation. According to him, both men…
