2027: Otti warns supporters against disrupting opposition campaigns

Abia State Governor Alex Otti warned Labour Party supporters that they would be arrested if they obstructed opposition parties’ lawful rallies or other campaign activities ahead of the 2027 general elections. He said parties could use public facilities, including stadia, after securing the required approvals and paying the stipulated fees, and that security agencies would protect their right to campaign. Otti also urged opponents to focus on policy alternatives and the state’s development priorities rather than personal attacks or campaign issues such as salaries, roads and sanitation.
