The Cross River State National Assembly members of the All Progressives Congress have unanimously endorsed President Bola Tinubu and Governor Bassey Otu for a second term in office.
The endorsement, which was made during a press conference in Calabar, cited the president’s notable achievements and the governor’s visible progress in the state.
Senator Eteng Williams, Chairman of the APC caucus in the state, described the endorsement as a collective and deliberate decision.
“Our president has done so well, and for us in the National Assembly, we have seen it, especially the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, which you and I shall enjoy,” he said. “For that reason, we endorse him for a second term so that the road can be completed. Let us all vote for President Tinubu as our sole candidate for the 2027 elections.”
Williams also commended Tinubu’s courageous leadership, student loan initiative, and infrastructure development across the country.
He further praised Governor Otu’s efforts in improving security and rehabilitating infrastructure in the state, saying, “Today, what we have seen is enough for us to go back and sleep and ask Sen. Bassey Otu to continue the good works. Our governor has done well and deserves our accolades. We are not mincing words; we are asking that he continue his good works in the state. So we endorse him for a second term.”
Other lawmakers, including Mike Etaba and Bassey Akiba, echoed the endorsement, stating that a second term would enable both leaders to focus on governance without distractions and build on the progress they’ve made so far.
“The endorsement is intended to allow both leaders to focus on governance without distractions,” Etaba said. Akiba added that the endorsement aligns with legislative practice, emphasizing the need for continuity in governance.
The lawmakers urged all residents of Cross River State to rally behind Tinubu and Otu for a second term, citing their achievements and commitment to development.
