CALABAR (CONVERSEER) – The Cross River State Political Network (CRISPON), a support group under the All Progressives Congress (APC), has organised a mega rally endorsing Governor Bassey Otu and President Bola Tinubu for re-election in 2027.

The rally is part of a series of recent endorsements by party stakeholders in Cross River State.

Held at the U.J. Esuene Stadium in Calabar on Saturday, the event drew party faithful, leaders, and supporters from all the 196 wards and 18 local government areas across the state. It marked a significant moment in the state’s political landscape, highlighting the deepening grassroots support and organisational strength of the APC in Cross River.

Addressing the crowd via telephone, Governor Otu expressed appreciation for the overwhelming support and reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to inclusive governance and development.

“My spirit is completely there with all of you. I assure you that there will be more appointments and opportunities for everyone. I implore you to continue to believe in what you are doing. We are moving forward and not backwards,” Otu said.

He commended CRISPON’s leadership, describing them as the “number one support group” of the APC, and promised that his administration would continue to work in harmony with the people, creating opportunities throughout the state.

Speaking at the event, the Director General of CRISPON, Dr Michael Abuo, highlighted the grassroots mobilisation efforts that led to the successful rally. He noted that over 7,000 persons were mobilised from the northern senatorial district alone, with thousands more from the central and southern districts joining to support the APC.

“This was made possible by grassroots mobilisation in all three senatorial districts. The turnout today sends a clear message that Cross River is fully behind President Tinubu and Governor Otu. We believe in their leadership, despite the challenges they’ve inherited,” Abuo stated.

He praised President Tinubu’s reforms, particularly the removal of the fuel subsidy, which he said has resulted in increased revenue allocations to states and local governments, empowering them to carry out impactful projects.

“President Tinubu has made Nigeria a development hub. Here in Cross River, Governor Otu has started fixing the little things—roads, wages, and the civil service. These are the foundations of bigger achievements,” he added.

Dr Abuo also reiterated CRISPON’s unwavering loyalty to the APC and its leadership, stating, “There is no vacancy in 2027. We are politically and totally in support of Tinubu and Otu.”
