A heartwarming video from Abia State has gone viral after a woman and her friends prepared and shared snacks with road construction workers as a gesture of appreciation for the ongoing infrastructure projects under Governor Alex Otti’s administration. The 71-second clip shows the women serving refreshments to the workers while expressing gratitude for the transformation of their street.
The gesture comes as Governor Otti continues an aggressive road rehabilitation programme since assuming office in May 2023. His administration has commissioned hundreds of road projects across Aba, Umuahia and other parts of the state as part of its infrastructure renewal drive, with officials maintaining a “zero pothole” policy on major roads.
The video has attracted widespread praise on social media, with many describing it as a rare moment where citizens openly celebrate public infrastructure improvements. Others noted that while road construction is a government’s responsibility, public appreciation can encourage accountability and better governance.
