The Abia State governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Kalu Kalu, has challenged Governor Alex Otti to showcase a single project executed by his administration in Ohafia Local Government Area, vowing to drop his governorship ambition if one is presented.
Kalu, who hails from Ohafia, made the challenge during an interview on Arise TV’s The Morning Show on Friday, alleging that the local government had received over N16 billion in allocations in the past three and a half years without any visible project by the state government.
“I am from Ohafia LG of Abia State, and I’m placing it on record here that my local government has received over N16 billion for the past three and a half years,” he said.
