414 Roads, 864.12km Of Proof: Otti Is Turning Abia’s Development Debate From Social Media Noise To Visible Performance- By Prof Chukwuemeka Ifegwu Eke

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics
414 ROADS, 864.12KM OF PROOF: OTTI IS TURNING ABIA’S DEVELOPMENT DEBATE FROM SOCIAL MEDIA NOISE TO VISIBLE PERFORMANCE There is a point at which propaganda becomes tired. There is a point at which political bitterness loses its entertainment value. There is a point at which people who have made a career out of shouting “nothing is happening” must either open their eyes, leave their keyboards and inspect what is happening around them, or accept that they are no longer critics of government but prisoners of their own resentment. That point has arrived in Abia State. Governor Alex Otti has placed…

Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance
OTTI’S PERFORMANCE IS REDRAWING ABIA’S POLITICAL MAP An election season does not begin only when campaign posters appear. It begins when citizens start connecting their everyday experiences with the question of leadership; when public works become subjects of community discussion; when familiar political relationships begin to shift; and when politicians recognise that the mood of the people may no longer be where it used to be.
