Otti Consolidates On Infrastructure Devt In Abia
Governor Alex Otti is consolidating the infrastructure development in the state.
The Governor commissioned the reclaimed and reconstructed Ovom Road, Aba.
The reclaimed Ovom Road has been a life‑threatening menace of gully erosion, and environmental hazard. According to governor Alex, "what was once a hopeless situation has now become a story of renewal, resilience, and progress".
A few years ago, Ovom was seemingly beyond redemption. In less than two years, the Otti administration filled a 42‑metre gully stretching over 600 metres, a chasm large enough to swallow an eight‑storey building.
The governor stated: "with rigid pavement technology and proper control measures, we have permanently contained the menace, sparing our community from what could have been an interminable disaster".
The Governor also flagged off the reconstruction of the long‑abandoned Enyimba Hotel project, now reborn as the Enyimba‑Radisson Hotel, in partnership with the global hospitality brand, Radisson Blu.
The 5‑star facility will deliver:
- A 120‑room hotel within 12 months
- A world‑class convention centre for businesses and public sector organisations
- Expansion to a 250‑room complex within 4 years, positioning Aba as a premier commercial and industrial hub in West Africa.
