The Governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, has accused his predecessor, Okezie Ikpeazu, of paying ₦9.8 billion to a contractor for the reconstruction of Port Harcourt Road in Aba, which he said was not delivered.
Otti made the accusation at Umuagbai Secondary School in Aba on Wednesday during a thanksgiving and carnival organised by the Aba community in celebration of the completion of Port Harcourt Road and other projects done by the Abia State government in Aba.
He stated that his opponents, including some officials of the immediate past administration in the State, are noise makers.
