In his words: “We must see to it that the presence of this administration is felt in every corners of Otukpo Council ward. As such, we will ensure that projects like construction of culverts and structures housing electricity transformers are achieved: at least. Despite the harsh economic realities of our country today”.

George Alli for running an all inclusive government and upholding the true concept of democracy in Otukpo. He described the Former state Legislator as “a beacon of democracy” and promised that he and his colleagues will live up to expectation regarding the execution of the projects.
The Otukpo Chairman said in terms of infrastructure there is so much gap to be filled, but that the economic situation of the country have been a hinderance to any meaningful drive. But even at that, let us do something with the little we have.
