Abia Governor Alex Otti Urged to Account for N54 Billion School Renovation Budget

Barrister Eze Chikamnayo, a public analyst and convener of Abia’s Best Interest Association, has called on Abia State Governor Alex Otti to provide a detailed account of the N54 billion allocated for public school renovations in the 2024 fiscal year. The demand follows reports that the state government, through the Ministry of Education led by Commissioner Dr. Uche Eme, withdrew N14 billion in 2023 for the same purpose.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Chikamnayo highlighted the deplorable state of infrastructure in public schools across several local government areas, despite the significant budgetary allocation. “The future of our children is at stake, and no government should be allowed to mortgage it under the guise of inflated or questionable expenditure,” he said.

Chikamnayo also questioned the expenditure on several “non-existing” projects listed in the state’s financial reports, including N7.28 billion for Research & Development, N6.5 billion for recreational facilities, N4 billion for agricultural seedlings, N3 billion for capacity building, N18 billion for security votes, and over N300 billion in local government allocations. He noted that the substantial funds, exceeding N1 trillion, were made possible by President Bola Tinubu’s reform policies.

“It is our duty to hold the government accountable,” Chikamnayo urged, calling on Abia citizens to demand transparency. “Abia State citizens everywhere must wake up and ask questions.”

As of the time of this report, filed on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, the Otti-led administration has not responded to the allegations. The call for accountability has intensified public scrutiny of the state’s financial management, particularly regarding educational infrastructure.

ABIA NORTH: Sustaining Credibility Over Mediocrity

-- By "Abia North Youth Movement"

The inception of the phenomenon of constitutional democracy has hitherto, undoubtedly provided equal platforms for aspirants who seek to either effectively represent the people or represent their interest.

The Aforementioned hypothesis, however explains the genesis of Representation within the propinquity Abia North Senatorial District.

Abia North, Having suffered Socio-Political And Infrastructural setback, prior to the emergence of Senator Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, began a prestigious journey of renaissance into what can be best described as "Perfectus Districtus Senatorius" in 2019.

In line with the aforementioned exquisite journey which began in 2019, irrespective of diverse rollercoasters, Senator Kalu has remained unwavering in his quest towards changing the narrative. It is worthwhile to mention that there's virtually no community in Abia North without Sen. Kalu's Legislative Imprints, ranging from school renovation and reconstruction, distribution of academic materials, construction of rural roads, distribution of solar powered lights, food security through distribution of agricultural tools and fertilizers to local farmers, Meaningful Empowerment, Et Al.

Comparing Ude Okochukwu, who spent 20 years in government without a single notable project even in his community, to Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, a visible and performing legislator, is like comparing silence to action. Despite holding influential positions, Ude left no developmental footprint, no infrastructure, no empowerment programs, and no legacy to speak of. In contrast, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has consistently shown commitment to his constituents through visible projects, road constructions, youth empowerment, and legislative representation that speaks volumes.

Similarly, while Chief Bourdex may be known more for uncontrollable outbursts and a short temper than for measurable impact, Sen. Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu has distinguished himself with accessibility, humility, and results-driven leadership. His doors remain open to the people, and his name is associated with development, not drama.

In politics, results matter more than rhetoric. While some occupy offices for personal gain or prestige, leaders like Senator Kalu prioritizes service, leaving behind a legacy of progress. The people recognize performance, and that’s why Orji Uzor Kalu remains a respected figure, both in Abia North and across Nigeria.

Ultimately, history doesn’t remember titles, it remembers Legacy of impact. And Senator Kalu stands tall as a true servant of the people. After OUK, not Ude Okochukwu and certainly not Burdex but at the moment and for 2027, OUK is still Okay.

Is Still Okay

Abia State Government Denies Existence of "Shadow Government," Warns PDP Against Its Use

The Abia State Government has firmly rejected claims of a "Shadow Government" operating within the state, issuing a stern warning to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to refrain from using the term.

Ferdinand Ekeoma, Special Adviser to Governor Alex Otti on Media and Publicity, addressed the issue in response to recent PDP criticism of the state’s 2025 Q2 financial report, which was attributed to a so-called "PDP Shadow Government." Ekeoma clarified that the concept of a shadow government is incompatible with Nigeria’s presidential system and accused the PDP of attempting to "cause nuisance" by invoking it.

"A shadow government does not exist in a presidential system of government," Ekeoma stated. He noted that the state government had previously warned against the term’s use in 2024 when the PDP first introduced the idea, taking decisive action to curb such activities. Ekeoma further referenced a recent Federal Government directive prohibiting the formation of shadow governments, warning that any renewed attempt by the PDP to revive the concept would provoke a "fierce response" from the state.

Ekeoma emphasized that political parties, including the PDP, have constitutional and legal frameworks, such as those outlined in Nigeria’s Constitution and Electoral Act, to operate responsibly as opposition without resorting to disruptive tactics.

Addressing financial concerns raised by the PDP, Ekeoma cited a Debt Management Office report, asserting that the current administration has reduced Abia State’s debt profile. He clarified that any existing external debt was inherited from previous administrations.

The Abia State Government urged the PDP to pursue its opposition role constructively and avoid actions that could undermine public order or governance in the state.

Today, we took another bold step towards shared prosperity as I flagged off the construction of the 5,000-shop Nsukka International Market, a world-class commercial hub that will transform trade, create jobs, and boost the economy of Enugu North Zone.

This project is more than bricks and mortar; it’s about inclusive growth. Those affected by the Ogige Market redevelopment will have first priority for shop allocation because development must never leave anyone behind.

The market, set for completion by the end of 2025, will complement the already completed modern Nsukka Transport Terminal, ensuring Nsukka advances in infrastructure, commerce, and connectivity.

I also had the pleasure of commissioning the School of Health - Stadium - GRA - Secretariat - Prisons ring road, reconstructed by the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, Hon. Engr Jude Asogwa, and engaging with our esteemed traditional rulers, who continue to inspire our vision.

I am sincerely grateful to the leaders and people of Enugu North Zone for their kind words of commendation on our modest efforts to transform Enugu State and make it more livable, and for the impressive turnout and rousing reception that made today truly memorable.

Together, we’re building an Enugu State where no zone is left behind and every community thrives.
