Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has denied the reports making the rounds on social media that he has dumped the Labour Party (LP) for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a statement, Abia State Commissioner for Information, Prince Okey Kanu said: 

“Governor Alex Otti remains a committed and proud member of the Labour Party, the platform under which the good people of Abia overwhelmingly elected him to serve.”

“His focus remains unshaken, to rebuild Abia, restore accountability, and deliver the dividends of democracy to every citizen of the state.”

“It is important to remind the public that only last week, during the October edition of “Governor Alex Otti Speaks to Abians.”

“The Otti-led administration has continued to pursue a clear vision anchored on transparency, fiscal discipline, infrastructure renewal, economic growth, youth empowerment, and the restoration of public confidence in governance.”

“These are values synonymous with the Labour Party’s ideals, values that the Governor will never compromise for any political expediency.”

“We wish to assure Abians that Governor Alex Otti remains resolute in his mission to continue to build a new Abia where truth, justice, and equity prevail under the banner of the Labour Party.”
