Cross River APC passes vote of confidence on Tinubu and Governor Otu

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Cross River State has passed a vote of confidence on President Bola Tinubu and Governor Bassey Otu, formally endorsing both leaders for re-election in 2027.
The endorsement was announced during a grand reception and “Thank You” rally held at the UJ Esuene Stadium on Thursday, organized by the party’s Southern Senatorial District.
Speaking at the event, the Chairman of the APC in Cross River, Mr Alphonsus Eba, praised the achievements of both the President and the governor, declaring that their performance justifies their return for another term.
> “Any APC member who comes out to run for the Cross River governorship position against Otu in 2027 will be expelled from the party,” Eba warned.
Senator Asuquo Ekpenyong, representing the Southern Senatorial District, also reaffirmed support for Tinubu, citing his track record as Lagos State governor from 1999 to 2007.
He credited Tinubu’s reforms for transforming Lagos into Africa’s second-largest economy, estimated at around $259 billion.
