‘I won’t stop opposition members from joining LP in Abia’ – Otti
Abia State governor, Alex Otti, has said that the doors of
the Labour Party, LP, would not be closed against the members of the opposition
party who are wishing to cross the carpet.
Otti, who stated this at Abia State Government House,
Umuahia, during his media chat with Abia people, said that a political party is
like a church where you cannot stop somebody who has come to worship from
entering.
He, however, made it clear that the good governance
presently going on in the state cannot be changed or affected by the entrance
of people from the opposition parties.
He also disclosed that he has been utilising security votes
to secure the state in line with his campaign promises.
He added that another member of the kidnapping team was
nabbed in Port Harcourt, saying that the special efforts of the Operation Crush
security team set up by his administration are yielding the desired results in
rooting out criminals.
Otti further expressed joy that pensioners in the state who
were owed for many years have received their pensions.
