Governor Alex Otti has declared that his administration’s grassroots engagement initiative across Abia communities is aimed at delivering people-driven governance based on the actual needs of the citizens and not assumptions.

Speaking through his Chief of Staff, Caleb Ajagba, during a town hall meeting at Ugwunagbo Local Government Area, the Governor said every community has unique developmental challenges which government must understand firsthand before initiating projects.

“We don’t want to govern based on assumptions because every community has peculiar needs,” Ajagba said.
