His words: “The area occupies a unique place in the geography and socio economic evolution of the state in particular and the South East in general. I assure you that the project is the beginning of what is to come.”

“Structured to radically transform the agricultural ecosystems in the State, the facility shall integrate productions, aggregation and processing of agro commodities for local consumption and export.”
He used the forum to thank the people for their “steadfast commitment to our cause and for consistently supporting the vision of a new Abia where no part of the State is abandoned to criminal elements”.

“Our success in the restoration of security in this part, points to what is possible when we work in unity as leaders to solve the social and economic problems facing our communities.

“We may belong to different political linings, and groups but the welfare of the good people of Umunneochi must never be sacrificed on the altar of petty partisan politics.”
