The governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, has strongly warned that no person or group can distract his administration with 2027 elections, adding that he is fully focused on delivering development for the state.
Otti made the statement on Saturday at the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Umuikaa District headquarters, Isialangwa South LGA, while attending worship with his wife, Priscilla Chidinma.
“I am not bothered about 2027. The same God who settled 2023 will also settle 2027,” he said.
He pledged that his government will continue to do the right thing, not minding the attacks by the opposition.
“No one, or group of people, whoever they are, is entitled to distract us. So, when they make noise, like I said last week, we should not be bothered. We should just remain focused and do what we have to do,” Alex Otti said.
In a recent verbal spat, Otti and three former state governors—Orji Kalu, Theodore Orji, and Okezie Ikpeazu—vowed to prevent Otti from being re-elected in 2027.
Alex Otti, addressing concerns about political attacks, said, “Sometimes, I worry if it is the 2027 election they are talking about, or maybe there’s another election coming up. But the same way God delivered me in 2023, that is the way He will deliver me in 2027.”
Recall that last week, the state government, through the governor’s Special Adviser on Policies and Interventions, Rev. Fr. Christian Anokwuru, warned opposition figures against attempting to pit Otti against President Bola Tinubu.
