Otti, who defeated Okey Ahaiwe of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the March 18 governorship contest, was sworn-in, in the presence of a crowd of jubilant supporters that filled the Umuahia township stadium to the brim.

Otti who described the present state of Abia to be in quagmire, blamed the situation on mismanagement of the state’s resources and deep corruption.

The new Governor informed corrupt persons who looted the State resources that his administration would come after them through legal means.“Let us not live under the illusion that the worst is over. We have only won a preliminary battle But we are certainly going to our promised land because we have resolved that we will no longer serve Pharaoh” Otti said while lamenting, “We have a treasure that has been ravaged.
