Ikpeazu brought attention to Abia State through his drive for made in Aba.
It was a new dawn for artisans and entrepreneurs in Aba when the Governor of Abia State Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu started the made in Aba drive. Beyond bringing extra patronage to these private owners, made in Aba has become a global anthem with lots of benefits from both Federal Government, agencies of government and global institutions.
Today, graduates are proudly shoe and garment makers with lots of take homes higher than what they could obtain while working for others or government. That is a pure private driven economy.
To make sure our markets become bigger, he constructed roads to all the major markets for access to these hubs.
