‘My goal is to transform Aba into Dubai, not Lagos’ says Gov Otti

Governor Alex Otti has fired back at Lagos State Government over the demolition of Igbo businesses saying that his target is to transform Aba Enyimba City to Dubai, China not Lagos State where poor government policies lead to frequent demolition of properties belonging to Igbos.

In his words, Gov Otti said. “I have no business with Lagos, I’m not competing with Lagos. My competition is China and Dubai.
“By the time I’m done with Aba, Lagos will look like a village,”

Otti declared that while some governments are busy pulling down shops and frustrating traders, his vision is to transform Aba into Africa’s Dubai — a global hub for commerce, innovation, and manufacturing..
