Unarguably the Speaker of the Cross River 10th Assembly is poised to hit the hard ground running towards a safer place.
The recent appointment list published by the Speaker of Cross River State House of Assembly is a clear pointer that the 10th assembly under the able leadership of Rt. Hon. Elvert Ayambem would achieve great strides in the days ahead.
As we work towards building the Cross River State of our dreams, it is very apt that we are deliberate in applauding leaders whose conscious efforts tilts towards achieving this dream.
Lately, our political space has been aground with nepotism, ethnicity and very high tendencies of favouritism. We have seen in recent clime where principals and top government officials allow blood or close relationships and even fraternal relationships play over professionalism, capability and efficiency.
In a list of personal aides announced yesterday, we saw deliberateness and purposeful efforts towards uniting Cross River State through a conglomeration of able, young and vibrant persons across the three Senatorial districts of the State. This step in a right direction by the Speaker of the 10th assembly calls for commendation and should be emulated by other principals in the state. Domiciling of appointments in a particular region, sect or tribe is a jinx that should be broken now for the sake of our common growth and unity.
ADDO, Faith
