Prince Edwin Okon, a former House of Representatives Aspirant and Chairman, Cross River Unity Forum in Lagos has called on Cross Riverians to remain steadfast in All Progressives Congress, APC and give 100% support to Sen. Prince Otu as the only trusted hand that will bring back the glory of the State.
He made this known in Ikoyi Lagos on Tuesday, July 12, 2022 as his opening remarks at a meeting of different community groups across the 18 Local Government Areas of Cross River State.
Prince Edwin Okon commended the Group Coordinator, Sen. Florence Ita-Giwa for her outstanding leadership style. He also described her as a stakeholder and grassrooter who has enjoyed enormous support from Cross Riverians over the years.
Prince Edwin went further to state that all hands must be on deck in order to deliver Sen. Prince Otu and other APC Candidates in the forth coming General Elections.
The founder of Mbono Ndito Efik (Gathering of Efik Children) Global Resources and Edem Odo Ward Pillar Association, Comrade Effiwatt Ededem Jr (Coordinator Cross River Unity Forum) applauded members of the steering Committee – Sen. Florence Ita-Giwa, Prince Edwin Okon, Elder Ndoma Odey, Rev. Patrick Eyo and Mr. Oku Oku Ekpeyong for building a formidable structure in Lagos and across all the 18 local governments in the State to project and propagate the candidature of Sen. Prince Otu, assuring the forum of Prince Otu’s victory at the polls.
Elder Ndoma Odey, leader of Cross River Indigenous Group in Lagos State; Ikom, Ogoja and Yala Local Government Areas of Cross River State , promised to give maximum support and deliver all the polling units in his Ward for Prince Otu.
The CEO Efik CDF, Antan Esor Bakassi of Local Government Area stated that she has since keyed into the #Back2South agenda and had already begun mobilization for Sen. Prince Otu including supporting transfer of their polling centres to Cross River State.
She said she was convinced to join the train after recently listening to his policies/programmes during his interface with Cross Riverians in diaspora.
Also speaking Mr. Abubu Alifu from Bekwara Local Government extolled the virtues and good deeds of Sen. Prince Otu, and concluded by saying ‘Sen. Prince Otu is the best man with the capacity and competence to succeed’.
The group therefore agreed to hold a Press Conference in Lagos to woo more persons into the winning Team.
