“I can assure you that your requests are in order. Also the requests made by Hon. Chris Nkwonta are also in order.
“Interestingly, we are already working on Abia Palm and in no distant future, you will see it work. And of course, the 19.5 nautical miles into the high sea is correct,” said Otti.
Governor Otti revealed that work had commenced on the scoping of the Ohanku Road, Aba, leading into the Ohanku community in Ukwa East LGA.
Earlier, Apostle Chinyere who is the General Overseer of Omega Power Ministries (OPM), said he donated the 100 plots of land for the project because of the importance of the hospital to his people.
Going further, Eze Chinyere said: “This is a general hospital; it will attract ancillary services. So many people are going to open up pharmacy stores around; hotels will open for people to lodge in, and more houses are to be built for people to rent.
