His numerous achievements ans laudable programs eloquently confirm the wisdom of Abians who elected him in 2015 and as stakeholders in the Abia project, we are here to solicit the support of our royal fathers to ensure that he is re-elected in 2019 to continue his laudable programs in the state”.

Others before him served for 8 years and he will certainly serve for 8 years. We and our subjects will certainly support the re-election of the Governor in 2019.”
