Senator Ohuabunwa said governor Otti has done well within 21 months in office and has made his Alma Mater, University of Port Harcourt, proud.
In his words; “You know when we speak, people would listen, not only in Abia State, not only in Nigeria, even within the ECOWAS Sub-region.
“We’ve seen the (allocation of 20 percent annual budget to education) and we are asking him to do more.
“I’m not here as a politician, but I’m here, speaking as a Pro-Vice Chancellor and Chairman of the Governing Council of University of Port Harcourt which is an Educational Institution, so, it’s a way of appreciating him and advising him to do more in the area of Education,”
“You know that I’m from this State and I have been part and parcel of the political trajectories of this State from 1999 till now and counting, so when I tell you anything, it will be difficult for anybody to contradict it.
“So, what I’m saying is that within 21 months, I think Dr. Alex Otti has done well and he is doing well. What we are saying is that we are encouraging him to do more,”
“I’m not just saying this because he is a Governor, if you check back during his days in the school and his academic performance, you will know that we are proud of him.
“He distinguished himself in the banking industry and not just distinguishing himself, he identified with the institution, his Alma Mater, and we are proud of him.
“So, we want to collaborate with him on a way that he will align with the institution quest and zeal to make sure that we are bringing Abia students into the University of Port Harcourt.”
