In Cross River State, on Thursday, the governorship candidates of 14 political parties gave their endorsements to the Senator John Owan-Enoh, who is the Governorship candidate of the APC for the 2019 general elections.

The governorship candidates who came under the group, Coalition of Owan Friends of Political Parties and Groups (COFOPPAG), said the state is in dire need of a rescue from the present administration hence the need to come together to ensure the APC candidate wins at the governorship polls.

Director-General of the Coalition and the governorship candidate of the People’s Party of Nigeria (PPN), Pastor Ntami Esege, said the development was the first of its kind in the country, and it became necessary because “our state has gone through a lot of drama where lies and sycophancy have taken over as the order of the day.”

Speaking at the inauguration of the Coalition in Calabar, Esege said the adopted Owan-Enoh because he had been tested and proven over the years in public service.

He expressed confidence that with their support, the APC would emerge victorious in the elections.

Owan-Enoh, who was accompanied by his running mate, Ntufam Ekpo Okon, said he was honoured by the adoption by the governorship candidates, and described the development as history making for the rebirth of Cross River State

He lauded them for choosing the interest of the state instead of personal interests, and promised not to fail them and the people of the state.

The APC governorship candidate alleged that everything about the present administration is fraudulent and called on Cross Riverians to “save the state.”

According to him, “great danger” awaits the state if the present government got reelected.

Let us know what you think about this deft move on the part of the Cross River APC Governorship Candidate, Senator John Owan-Enoh.
