"They want you to believe voting me means abandoning your region. Nonsense. My presidency won't pick winners and losers—every part of Nigeria will eat. South, North, East, West—all included. Full stop."
— Peter Obi
At the Nnenna Oti Bus Terminal in Umuahia today, we formally commissioned 20 new electric buses, adding them to the Abia Green Shuttle fleet. This fulfills the promise we made when the first set of 20 buses were launched on December 23, 2025.
Transportation is one of the driving forces behind Abia’s economic growth, opening doors to new opportunities and improving the wellbeing of our people. By embracing electric vehicles, we are not only lowering operational costs and reducing emissions, but also advancing our vision of a modern, inclusive, and greener Abia. The new buses are equipped with expanded cargo capacity and integrated accessibility features for persons with disabilities (PWDs), thus promoting inclusivity, dignity, and universal access for all passengers.
We are committed to strictly enforcing traffic regulations, with zero tolerance for reckless driving, beating traffic lights, or vehicle overloading. The Abia State Road Traffic and Safety Management Agency (ARTSMA) and the Harmonized Task Force will now extend operations till 10 pm daily, including weekends, to safeguard lives and property.
Special thanks to the Interagency Transport team led by Mr. Chinenye Mba Uzoukwu for their dedication. Proper management of our transport assets and staff welfare remain top priorities. Acts of sabotage or vandalism will be thoroughly investigated, and culprits will face the law.
As we build the new Abia, I urge our citizens to take their tax obligations seriously. Together, we will continue closing the gap between where we are and where we aspire to be, while building a transport system that embodies the vision of a New Abia and creates greater opportunities for every citizen.

The highlight of this video has to be the little pieces of Ankara incorporated in the outfit worn by the orchestra members.
