 Governor Otti Receives Cyclist Who Rode from Lagos to Abia in His Honour, Reaffirms Commitment to Good Governance.


Abia State Governor, His Excellency Dr Alex Otti, OFR, has assured Abians and residents that nothing will distract his administration from delivering the dividends of democracy to them, reaffirming his unapologetic stance that the essence of Government is the welfare and happiness of the people.


Governor Otti gave the reassurance on Monday, 27th October, immediately after the weekly State Executive Council meeting, when he received in audience the Abia-born cyclist, Mr Wisdom Chisom, who rode a bicycle all the way from Lagos State to Abia State in honour of the Governor’s visible and impactful achievements across the State in record time.


“We are happy that our people are happy because the essence of government is to make your people happy, that is the welfare of the people. We will continue and will not stop.


“We want to thank our people for the massive support everywhere, not just in Abia, but everywhere that our people are. And, we want to reassure them that nothing will distract us and that we will continue to deliver dividends of democracy to our people"


Mr Wisdom disclosed that he left Lagos on Monday and arrived in Umuahia, the State capital, on Saturday (weekend), and insisted that he must see the Governor to pay his homage.


The Governor, who didn’t know about the cycling journey of Mr Wisdom Chisom until he was informed at the close of the Executive Council Meeting by the State Commissioner for Sports and Youth Development, Sir Nwaobilor Ananaba, welcomed and thanked Mr Wisdom for the honour.


He encouraged him to remain a good citizen wherever he finds himself, noting that Abians stand out in everything they do, wherever they may be.
