Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has said his administration will focus on consolidating ongoing reforms and development projects if re-elected for a second term in 2027.
Otti said the achievements recorded during his first three years in office represented the foundation of a broader development agenda aimed at delivering lasting improvements across the state.
The governor made the remarks on Sunday, November 8, during the South-East Conference of Dominion City Global in Aba, Abia State.
Describing his administration’s achievements as a preliminary phase of its development programme, Otti said the government intended to deepen reforms and implement projects with long-term benefits for residents.
He stated that the next four and a half years would be devoted to consolidating progress and introducing changes that would be difficult to reverse.
The governor maintained that his administration was more interested in delivering practical results than making promises it could not fulfil.
On electricity, Otti disclosed that the state government was working towards achieving a more reliable power supply across Abia.
He said the administration had taken steps to bring the remaining eight local government areas under the state’s electricity regulatory framework, with the objective of strengthening power generation, distribution and oversight.
According to him, the initiative would support efforts to expand electricity access and create opportunities to distribute excess power to other parts of the state.
Otti also highlighted his administration’s monthly media engagement programme, describing it as a platform for informing residents about government policies, activities and achievements.
Speaking on governance, the governor reiterated his commitment to fairness, equity and merit-based appointments.
He maintained that residents should receive equal treatment regardless of their state of origin or religious affiliation, adding that everyone living in Abia should be regarded as part of the state.
The governor further urged Christians to demonstrate their faith through responsible conduct, hard work and practical contributions to society.
He congratulated Dominion City Global on its conference and the development of its church facility in Aba.
Otti also stated that any financial contribution he made towards the church project would come from his personal resources rather than public funds.
Earlier, the President of Dominion City Church, Pastor David Ogbueli, commended the governor’s leadership and development initiatives.
Ogbueli cited improvements in infrastructure and the business environment while encouraging the administration to sustain its efforts.
The governor’s remarks come as political activities gradually intensify ahead of the 2027 governorship election in Abia State.
