Ahead the 2023 general elections, a political support group with the vision to restore the glory of Cross River State is set for formal inauguration.
The group known as Reclaim Cross River will be inaugurated on Tuesday, February 2 at Ogoja, the senatorial district headquarters.
The group has also kicked off voter registration awareness campaign.
The Director General of the group, Paul Ishabor Esq, said Reclaim Cross River which is affiliated to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, comprise vibrant Cross Riverians with common political persuasion distraught over the unprecedented decay in morale and infrastructures ravaging the state since the advent of the present administration.
He said that Reclaim Cross River was founded by some patriotic indigenes and friends of the state poised to redress the devastation in the state arising from maladministration, lack of focus and outright insincerity.
“The previous administration of Donald Duke and Liyel Imoke worked tirelessly to transform our beloved state into an ultimate destination for leisure and investment. We used to introduce ourselves with pride as Cross Riverians. Sadly, we are now in retrogression mode.
“To drive our vision to fruition and after a holistic appraisal of all the potential governorship aspirants under the PDP, we have opted to queue behind Senator Sandy Onor to take over in 2023. Our choice is devoid of myopic vision and ethnic colouration. We simply want the best for Cross River,” he noted.
The group, Ishabor added, has a solid grassroots foundation across the state with three senatorial coordinators,18 local government officials and 196 ward leaders.
Reclaim Cross River is mobilising voters to register in the ongoing Continuous Voters Registration exercise and creating to end voter apathy during elections.
