Don’t sell Abia’s future because of inducement from desperate politicians – Gov Otti cautions Abia voters

Abia State Governor Alex Otti has warned voters against succumbing to the enticements of politicians seeking their support for the 2027 general election. The governor cautioned the electorate on Sunday during his appearance at the Second Session of the Seventh Synod of the Anglican Communion, Diocese of Aba Ngwa North.

Governor Otti urged the voters to consider the long-term consequences of their political decisions, rather than allowing immediate material incentives to sway their votes. He alleged that certain politicians, responsible for Abia State's underdevelopment for over two decades, are once again vying for power at any cost.

Governor Otti stressed that these politicians, now seeking Abia residents' support, are responsible for the challenges his administration is currently tackling. He cautioned voters to resist being deceived by their renewed political activities.

Governor Otti reminded the electorate that the politicians are all over again, but the Bible states that they will not proceed further. He implored the people of Abia to be vigilant and avoid allowing the ₦5,000, ₦10,000, wrappers, or rice given by politicians to determine their political destinies for the next four years. Governor Otti cautioned, "Don’t sell Abia's future because of inducement from desperate politicians."
