 Former Deputy Governor Ude Oko to Join Labour Party in Abia Abia State politics is bracing for a new twist as Ude Oko, the immediate past Deputy Governor of Abia State, prepares to formally join the Labour Party on Saturday, August 23, 2025. His defection is already generating conversations across political circles, not only for its timing but also for what it signals about the growing influence of the Labour Party in the Southeast. Oko’s decision comes after a series of notable engagements with the leadership of the state. In a recent meeting with Governor Alex Chioma Otti, the former deputy governor openly praised the administration’s achievements, describing the governor as “the light Abia has never had.” The statement, widely shared across media platforms, has been interpreted as both an endorsement of Otti’s governance and a subtle indication of Oko’s future political alignment. Following his visit to the governor, Oko also paid a courtesy call on the Deputy Governor, Engr. I...

Enugu Deputy Governor Applauds Otti’s Governance: A Lesson for Abia’s Critics By Chidi Nnamani August 21, 2025 The Deputy Governor of Enugu State, His Excellency Mr. Ifeanyi Ossai, has lavished praise on Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, describing his style of leadership as transformative and inspiring not only to Abians but to Nigerians across board. Speaking during a recent event, Ossai recalled how Abia once presented a depressing picture whenever travelers passed through. “Each time I visited Umuahia in the past, it was always heartbreaking—the potholes, the stench, the neglect,” he remarked. “But what I met this time shocked me. The roads are smooth, the filth is gone, and the capital city has a refreshing feel. On behalf of the Igbo people and Nigerians at large, we say thank you for making us proud.” Ossai’s words echo what many neutral observers have admitted—Abia, after decades of poor governance, is finally experiencing tangible reforms under Governor Otti.

  ABIA: Otti Pushes for Tougher Drug Laws, Donates Vans to NDLEA Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, has called for stricter legislation against drug dealers, arguing that dismantling drug cartels is key to reducing crime. Speaking at Government House, Umuahia, during a courtesy visit by the new NDLEA State Commandant, Mr. Joseph Owoputi, Otti said over 90% of crime is linked to drug abuse and urged the National Assembly to strengthen existing laws. “We just need to crack the drug cartel. Once you deal with the source, crime disappears. Current laws are too lenient—mere counselling and rehabilitation are not enough punishment,” the Governor stated. To boost NDLEA’s operations, Otti approved two brand-new Hilux vans and directed the repair of abandoned agency vehicles. He reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to supporting the fight against drug abuse in the state. Commandant Owoputi, in his remarks, praised Otti as “a dependable ally” and reported that between June and A...
