Governor Otti urged residents to promptly report any suspected criminal activities to security agencies for swift action. He underscored that the state government would view any form of support or tolerance for crime as an act of sabotage, vowing to take decisive measures to protect the lives of citizens.

In the same broadcast, Governor Otti assured the people of Abia that civil servants’ salaries would be increased in 2024 to align with economic realities. He highlighted the existing cordial relationship between the three arms of government in Abia and encouraged residents to pay their taxes through government digital platforms. Maintaining a clean environment, he added, would contribute to more infrastructural development in the state.

The Governor pledged to utilize the recently signed 2024 budget to enhance the health, education, technology, and environmental sectors, focusing on job creation and extensive infrastructural projects. Despite acknowledging challenges in fulfilling promises related to pension arrears, Otti expressed regret and assured the public that the backlog would be cleared by the end of the first quarter of 2024. He explained that the initial earmarked funds were insufficient due to the discovery, during digital verification, that the actual number of retirees exceeded the allocated amount.
