Diamond bank ex-MD promises ‘govt of stars’ in Abia

One of the leading  aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2015 Abia governorship election, Dr. Alex Otti, has said if voted into power, he will introduce “government of stars” in the state.

The ex- Diamond bank boss stated this on Wednesday while inaugurating his campaign office in Umuahia.

He said Abia would witness rapid infrastructural and economic transformation if he clinches the governorship position, promising to use his local and international contacts to woo investors into the state.

Otti,  who also formally declared his intention to run for the position at Aba Sports Club, said he would replicate his achievements in Diamond bank, which, he said he brought among the first six banks in Nigeria.

He noted that Abia was replete with enormous human and material resources, which needed an experienced technocrat to harness.

Otti, who hails from Abia Central Zone, added that the ceding of the governorship ticket to Abia South Senatorial district by the PDP caucus would  not stop him from emerging as the party’s flag bearer.

He said he remained “the best of all jostling for the position both in intellect and readiness.”

Present on the occasion were Nollywood  stars and Charles Oputa, aka Charley Boy, Jim Martins, ex-international Kanu Nwankwo and former Super Eagles captain, Austin  Okocha, among others.
