POSTHUMOUS BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE TO LATE RT. HON. OSSY CHINEDU PRESTIGE.
Today, we remember and celebrate the life of a rare gem, a servant of the people, and a man whose passion for humanity defined his every step — Late Rt. Hon. Ossy Prestige.
Though you are no longer with us, your birthday still calls us to pause and reflect on a life lived with courage, conviction, and uncommon generosity. You were more than a politician; you were a brother to the people, a voice for the voiceless, and a leader who wore humility as a badge of honour.
Your contributions to society, your unwavering commitment to your constituents, and your belief in a better tomorrow continue to echo long after your departure. You showed that leadership is not about power, but about service; not about titles, but about impact.
On this day, we do not mourn as those without hope. Instead, we celebrate your legacy — the lives you touched, the hope you inspired, and the standards you set. Your works speak for you. Your name lives on in the hearts of the people you served so faithfully.
Happy posthumous birthday, Rt. Hon. Ossy Prestige. You may be gone from our sight, but never from our hearts.
May your soul continue to rest in perfect peace.

Aba has always stood tall as a city of enterprise, innovation, and uncommon resilience.

From infrastructure renewal to improved governance, the signs of a new Aba are evident. These positive changes require our collective support, patience, and cooperation to be sustained and deepened. I therefore call on every resident to continue supporting the Governor’s people-centered agenda, as together we build an Aba that works for all.
