C’River Govt Promises Free and Fair LG Election

In preparation for the November 2, 2024, Local Government Election in Cross River State, Governor Bassey Otu has officially launched the All Progressives Congress, APC campaign, emphasising a commitment to grassroots development.


Represented by Deputy Governor, Rt. Hon. Peter Odey, the Governor commended the candidates for the rigorous and transparent selection process that led to their nominations.

 

He highlighted the crucial role of local government administration in advancing rural development, aligning with his administration’s “People First” vision for an APC-led state.


The Deputy Governor underscored the Otu administration’s accomplishments over the past 17 months, listing infrastructure advancements across the three senatorial districts, improved security, enhanced healthcare, quality education, and strengthened workforce capacity.

 

He assured the public of a free, fair, and credible election under the Cross River State Independent Electoral Commission (CROSIEC), urging support for APC candidates to sustain the state’s socioeconomic and developmental momentum.


APC State Chairman Alphonsus Ogar Eba thanked Governor Otu for his transparent leadership, which he said has galvanised overwhelming support for both the administration and the APC.


Eba encouraged party members, especially those who were not successful in the primaries, to prioritise the party’s unity and collective goals.


Speaker of the Cross River State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Elvert Ayambem, also addressed the crowd, calling for reconciliation and unity within the party.


He stressed that beyond winning elections, the primary duty of any political party is to foster harmony among its members.
