G. Our administration introduced the use of Rigid Pavement (Cement) Technology in road construction to guarantee minimum of 30 years life span for concerned roads. Most of the roads we constructed at Aba were done using this technology following our realization, through painstaking research, that to ensure longevity of new roads at Aba we need to ensure that all our roads are solid with double drains that empties into free flowing major drainage facilities that terminates at our already partially dredged storm water collection points.

H. We embarked on massive desilting of drainage-ways (gutters) at Aba and partially dredged waterside river to receive more storm water and prevent flooding of our roads after the usual heavy rainfall we experience for more than 8 months of the year.

I. It is on record that our administration commenced the construction of the first ever Abia interchange (flyover) since the creation of the state, at Osisioma Aba.

J. Recently, our administration awarded new contracts for the reconstruction of PH, Ngwa road, Osusu, Omuma and Uratta roads with preliminary works concluded. The new PH road is expected to be a 6 lane road with dedicated BRT lane and actual earth moving work is expected to commence this October at the roads.

K. Our administration is actively working on federal government owned Aba-Owerri road Aba with drainage and other works currently ongoing at portions of the road.

L. We have completed 2 massive erosion control works at Imenyi Bende and Abiriba roundabout. Another erosion control work is ongoing at Umuda Isingwu in Umuahia north local government.

As part of our efforts to reactivate moribund factories in the state, we resuscitated the Aba Glass industry. Currently, we are clearing up issues of ownership and gas supply to the facility.

To support our MSMEs with steady power supply, we are actively working with the federal government to provide steady power supply at Ariaria International market area of Aba. Our administration is also supporting Geometrics to commence operations and provide uninterrupted power supply to Aba.

The State Government has collaborated effectively with the Federal Government to ensure Abians are benefiting from all the available Social Investment Programmes. The numbers are very interesting.

a. The School feeding programme launched in Abia prior to that of the federal government is feeding 145,000 pupils in 859 public primary schools and employs about 1,180 cooks mostly rural women. The programme is building rural economy.
b. The N Power Programme a job creation efforts has in its employ about 3,300 Abia youths receiving 30,000 Naira monthly on a regular basis.
c. The GEEP Moni Market loan scheme has disbursed to over 8,000 Abia small scale business owners between 50,000 to 100,000.

Due to his sagacity in pushing the made in Aba campaign Governor Ikpeazu sits on almost all federal committees for the development of MSMEs.  

The initial works for the emergence of Umukalika leather and garment cluster is ongoing and we hope to move into the location early next year.

Please identify any of these projects from your area of Abia state and confirm it was done by the Ikpeazu administration as part of "carrying along" your
People..
