They made the demands at a meeting hosted by Chief Stanley Orji Oba at Abiriba, specifically asking Emenike to forge ahead with his mission to free Abia from misrule.

“We don’t have a good manager in Government House,” one of the stakeholders said. Adding that the incompetence of the people presiding over the affairs of Abia is so glaring that their behaviour remains unchanged under every economic situation

“I recommend High Chief Emenike as someone who will be diligent in managing our resources and we must support him to drive away the bad managers out of Government House,” he said.

“We are here to tell Abiriba, Nkporo and Ohafia (the communities that constitute Ohafia LG) that APC has come with the right leader to take over Abia State,” he said.

Emenike, in his remarks, told the Ohafia stakeholders that he had committed himself to lift Abia out of the pit of underdevelopment which bad governance has plunged it.

“There will be a better Abia at the 32nd anniversary of its creation,” he said.

The APC governorship standard-bearer regretted that “after 31 years of existence Abia is still in a state of decay. It is a shame. But I promise that after two years whoever likes dirty environments will not see it again in Abia.”
