The Otti Ledger: Balancing Abia’s Political Books For A 2031 Reckoning – By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics
The Otti Ledger: Balancing Abia's Political Books for a 2031 Reckoning A consideration of the political trajectory of Abia State towards the year 2031 necessitates a dispassionate analysis of its prevailing economic and political currents, viewed through a philosophical lens that transcends the immediate fray of partisan contention. The present administration of Dr. Alex Otti provides a critical fulcrum upon which this future will pivot, not merely for its policy directives but for the underlying philosophical shift it represents.

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance
The Ontological Scission: Otti’s Governance as an Existential Rupture in Abia’s Political Consciousness The recent political theatrics surrounding President Tinubu's passage through Abia have revealed far more than a mere protocol disagreement; they have unveiled a fundamental schism in the very conception of power. What the myopic opposition celebrates as a "snub" is, in the grand theatre of being, a profound ontological event—a moment where the simulacrum of power was decisively unmasked by its authentic counterpart. The Spectacle of Power Versus the Power of Substance For decades, the political lexicon in Abia was predicated on a hollow phenomenology. Governance was…

Why Commissioning PortHarcourt And Other Roads In ABA Goes Beyond A Presidential Visit – By Dr. Engr. Odo Ijere (Okpotemba)

WHY COMMISSIONING PORTHARCOURT AND OTHER ROADS IN ABA GOES BEYOND A PRESIDENTIAL VISIT. By Dr. Engr. Odo Ijere While it is yet unclear whether President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will honor today's invitation to come and commission the Portharcourt and other roads projects completed by Governor Alex Otti, it must be said that the several attempts made by Governor Alex Otti to bring the President to Abia soil to commission the long completed 6.3km Portharcourt road is first and foremost an acknowledgement of the fact that the Tinubu government granted its permission for the Alex Otti government to work on the…
