Abia State Governor Alex Otti has thanked Abia people for heeding to his plea not to join the protests against hunger and hardship going on in parts of the country.
Governor Otti, who expressed his gratitude to on Saturday
while observing the Sabbath worship at the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, school
road, in Aba, said reiterated that that there were peaceful channels of
protesting against hardship in the country, but not through violence.
“I want to use this opportunity to thank you and Abia people
who listened to my plea not to come out, pour into the roads and disrupt
services and activities and probably visit mayhem on the people.
“The reason is not because things are not difficult, far
from it. I recognize how difficult things are today, but at the same time,
there is a saying that two wrongs cannot make a right.
“I also do know that a lot of our people live by the day,
some are traders, some are Keke riders, some are barbers, and some are taxi
drivers.
“These people put food on the table on the bases of what
they earn that particular day,” he said.
He noted that disrupting the activities of those whose delay
bread depends on going out daily in the name of protest will end up worsening
the problems.
The Governor also disclosed that school road in Aba will
soon be fixed.
He also thanked the members of the church for their
continued support for his administration, while calling for more prayers for
him and his administration.
