Chairman, Forum of Special Assistants in the State, Andrea Ekeng Inyang, stated this as the Governor went round to commission some of the abandoned or uncompleted projects he inherited from his predecessors.
He addressed the crowd of special assistants and other guests at a Stewardship Dinner in honour of Governor Otu to celebrate Otu’s two years in government.

According to him, Otu has refurbished more than 40 projects, more than half are those he inherited.
The aides said the state was in a dilapidated state when Otu took over but that in two years he has transformed it.
