‘You’ve made us proud,’ UNIPORT alumni tell Gov Otti

A delegation of University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) alumni has commended Governor Alex Otti of Abia State for his development efforts after their inspection of different project sites in the state.

A former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, led the alumni delegation, according to a statement issued on Sunday by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Otti, Ferdinand Ekeoma.

Mr Ekeoma said the UNIPORT alumni expressed satisfaction with Mr Otti’s accomplishments under two years, especially the quality road projects, like Port Harcourt Road in Aba, the Umuahia-Uzuakoli-Abiriba-Ohafia Road, the Aguiyi Ironsi Boulevard, the ongoing reconstruction of Omenuko Bridge, and many others.
