His Excellency, Dr. Alex Otti, this is a public THANK YOU for restoring excellence in our educational system in Abia State. In Igbo tradition, it takes the killing of one leopard to be called a killer of leopards; yes, across multiple sectors in our dear state, you have subdued many economic and developmental “leopards.”
I am deeply proud of where we stand today in NECO, WASC, and JAMB. Abia State has delivered outstanding performance in the 2024 and 2025 NECO Senior School Certificate Examinations (SSCE), with over 83% of candidates securing five credits or more, including Mathematics and English, ranking the state first nationally. This is not just success; it is a statement of direction and discipline.
Fellow Nigerians, this outcome is not accidental. It is the result of deliberate design and disciplined execution, the physics of governance at work. When the Governor assumed office, he articulated a clear playbook, with education at its core. We examined the processes, strengthened the people, and improved the tools. With clarity of purpose, our commissioners, permanent secretaries, and dedicated Abia workers went to work. Their collective effort is now elevating the state to the very top.
