After nearly a decade of neglect, the Aba Mega Mall project is set for revitalization following a crucial meeting between Governor Alex Otti and the management of Greenfield Assets Limited, led by Group Chairman Dr. Paul Obanua.
Dr. Obanua, who invested $10 million in the project, expressed his renewed optimism, revealing that Governor Otti’s administration has offered a partnership opportunity to transform the mall into a Manufacturing Ecosystem and Export Hub. He announced plans to attract investments worth over ₦50 billion and convert the mall into an industrial park that will provide modern manufacturing services for Aba’s garment and shoe industries.
Governor Otti assured the team of his administration’s readiness to support credible investors and create wealth for the people of Abia. He promised a thorough review of the revitalization proposal and directed the state’s team to engage further with Greenfield Assets.
Dr. Obanua praised Governor Otti’s political will and focus on development, stating that under his leadership, the Aba Mega Mall can become a global export hub for U.S., European, and African markets.
The proposed project aims to boost productivity for Aba-based entrepreneurs by offering automated industrial machines, product standardization, and global certification to help local manufacturers export their products worldwide.
Financial adviser Sam Chidoka commended Governor Otti’s humility and commitment, describing him as a model leader from the private sector bringing positive change to governance.
With this partnership, the Aba Mega Mall is poised to become a symbol of industrial and economic transformation in Abia State.
