| Governor Benedict Ayade of Cross River State and his developmental prowess. Taking Cross River State to the technological age through his innovative imprints. |

Nothing is wrong with Cross River except the recent volumes of sponsored blackmail and propaganda to remove the person that has the vision of taking Cross River out of debts and economic doldrum.
He touched the tiger’s tell for ever dreaming to build a superhighway and seaport, a project that is God sent to emancipate the state but all of a sudden serious childish opposition started , the EIA, the court injunctions, the NGOs, villages were deceived to protest against the project that would change their fortunes to generations yet unborn. I heard a prominent Cross Riverian whom I believe must have been brainwashed saying
“we will just remove him(the Gov) and that his signature project would stop”.
If that is the case then they don’t have any good intention for the masses.
I weep for my people because the Bible says, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. He would have been the best governor, if he had collected loans and shared to his critics and to every family, built skyscrapers and flyovers everywhere and plunged us into more grievous debts.
Cross River State Ekuyak me owo ebianga mbufo nyin isibetkebet nti nkpo (Cross Riverians don’t be deceived for we not alien to better things).
Things cant continue the way they were. If you do the same thing the same way every time, you’ll always have the same result. The previous administrators got heavy loans did some projects but those loans have skyrocketed now and are hanging on the neck of the present administration as debts. There is no government in the world that solves all the state or Nation’s problems at the same time. One and a few other things are handled at a time while others get pending to be attended to later but some critics do lack this understanding nose about to lay hands on those other ones that are pending or are still on the drawing board and begin to use it to run down the performance of the administration, this is very wrong. They’ll look for wherever corpses or refuse heaps or flood site are located any in the world snap them and use them to buttress their facts against the government. Some those publications may be exaggerations blown beyond measures and people who do not stay at home including potential investors on reading these fallacies their minds would be boiling against the Government.
You can see here that the real problem we have in our state is the recent swarm of destructive critics and their selfish sponsors who are only targeting a political office and would never perform magic. The same thing they were criticizing another person they even do worst.
