Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has been applauded by a group known as the Ntighauzo Amairi Progressives for his infrastructural stride.
The association, in a statement signed by its President, Mr Adindu Johnson, described this as unprecedented in the history of Abia State.
It explained that some projects such as the Agalaba Ring Road are legacies that will outlive decades after the Governor’s tenure.
The group said it is appreciative of the governor’s benevolence which has immensely benefited sons and daughters of the community.
While the organisation prayed for the governor’s intervention on the road linking Ukpakiri-Abayi- Ntighauzo and other neighbouring communities, it urged the governor to consider sons and daughters of the community for key appointments in his government.
It will be recalled that the road is a feeder road that links some Abia communities with some Akwa Ibom communities.
The group also thanked the governor for his support and cordial relationship with one of their sons, a member representing Obingwa East State Constituency and the leader of Abia House of Assembly, Hon. Solomon Akpulonu.
Ntighauzo Amairi Progressives also prayed for God’s continued guidance and protection to the governor and his family.
