The quality of products from that market is very good, what they need is government’s support. In that market, they produce a lot of leather wears -bags shoes, belts among others. For instance, in Ariara international market, there is a place they call Bakassi market. We will create what I call an export promotion board. The youths within the locality will be trained in different skills so that they can add their quota and become resourceful. With such level of development, we shall be able to enhance our internally generated revenue (IGR) to make Aba the Japan of Africa the things that attract growth and development include good roads, good waste disposal and security. In 2016, we did a housing survey in Aba and we got over 560,000 houses. What are your plans for Abia, particularly Aba, the commercial city?Ība is the commercial hub of Abia State, and a lot can be done about Aba. I can’t speak for other political parties. When you talk of Abia Charter of equity, the average Abia State indigene is more interested in a governor that will drive high level development and give them the Abia of their dream they don’t really care where he comes from, and in the YPP, we don’t have any zoning we are interested in competence and development. There is the Abia Charter of Equity, what part of the state do you come from? The PDP has done their best but their best is not good enough for what the 21st century youths of Abia want. The people want a change that will lead to industralisation and have something for the youths to be resourceful, they want a change that will attract industries, development, create wealth, and enable people to contribute their quota, that is the change we are talking about.Īre you then saying that the PDP failed Abia State? If you ask any Abian today, when they sleep, they yearn for change when they eat, they yearn for change, and not just change but positive change with a young competent man that will be in charge of affairs and that person is I.Ībia is a state blessed with mineral resources that will drive development.
The PDP has ruled Abia for the past 23 years are you sure the people want to change the party they have become so familiar with? The youths know that if I’m elected, I will drive development and realise the Abia State of their dream the demand for a change is high. My party, the YPP is a platform for the youths who have a passion to drive change in Abia State, and they know what I stand for. The youths are at the forefront of everything going on now in Abia State and they want a change. Talking about displacing the PDP that has led the state since 1999, that will not be a problem. I will also use my corporate exposure and we will work together. I have a team of experienced professionals that will drive the development of the state. What we need in Abia State is having investment sense, and a passion to drive development. I don’t think that having political experience should be a criterion to be governor because politics is played everywhere, even in the home. I have over 1,500 people in my employment, and I have taken difficult and hard decisions. What we are experiencing in Abia today transcends someone with a political background it requires someone with the political will, passion, and competence to attract and drive development in Abia State. So, I see myself as someone with adequate political background. My late father was the first deputy governor of old Abia State having served as the Deputy to Dr Ogbonnaya Onu in 1992 under the umbrella of the National Republican Convention.
If you are talking about political experience, I come from a very politically conscious family. You are aspiring to become governor of Abia State in 2023, what is your experience, and what is the structure of the YPP in the state do you think you can dislodge the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that has ruled Abia State since 1999?
He was recently in Lagos where he had an interactive session with a group of selected journalists, and also gave an insight into why he is in the race, his mission and vision for the God’s own State. Enyinnaya Chima Nwafor is the 2023 governorship candidate of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) in Abia State.
