Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, has said he would only seek re-election in 2019, after successful completion of projects initiated by his administration across the state.
Ikpeazu disclosed this while speaking in a political programme “Osinachi”, at the Broadcasting Corporation of Abia monitored in Aba on Friday.
“There are a few things which I am saying if we are able to finish by the grace of God, in the future I would think that we can answer the call to seek for re-election in 2019,” he said.
He named some of the ongoing projects as the construction of Ifeobara basin, the reconstruction of Arochukwu road, the Osisioma interchange as well as the revival of the School of Nursing in Aba.
Ikpeazu said that since leadership is linked to achievements in office, he can be sure of matching any other candidate after completing the projects.
He said that government had so far invested about N325 million towards upgrading facilities at the Enyimba Stadium with a view to making it “world class”.
Ikpeazu said two billion naira had been released to Setraco Construction Company for the reconstruction of the Aba-Port Harcourt road, adding that his administration had also done well in promoting made-in-Abia goods by patronising the products.
He said that his administration had also recorded successes in its agricultural projects especially in Aba which was aimed at improving the life of the people.
