"Let Us Support Advancement of People's First Agenda of Gov. Otu"-Dr Okputu

A member of the State Policy Advisory Committee, Dr Julius Okputu, has advocated for support from all and sundry towards governor Otu's people centered development agenda in the state.

In a chat with newsmen on Wednesday, he affirmed that, "a very close scrutiny of the Governor's development strides within one year clearly reveals a determination to restore a glorious past, that which the locusts have eaten within a humanitarian agenda".

According to Dr Okputu, the most audaciously bold from very genuine emotions is " the setting aside the sum of Ten Billion Naira to clear arears of gratuity from 2014.

While highlighting new heights under the present administration within one year in office include;

Construction of near impassable roads across the state, the Yahe-Wanokom-Wanikade- Wanihem Benue Border Road

The forgotten Oban Nsan Road in Akamkpa Local Government Area.

The Adiabo Road in Odukpani Local Government, restoration of the aesthetics of Calabar, Street lights and cimplete rehabilitation/ reconstruction of roads in Calabar Municipality and Calabar South.

Back to the North, construction of 17km internal roads in Ogoja, the Alifokpa road and Akreha Bridge, Mkpani Agoi and othe roads in the Central for commencement of work. Rehabilitation and restoration o Government buildings and other facilities.

The policy thrust of the Governor's development agenda has a Grassroots bias with intentions that are clearly noble. "Let us pray and support the Governor's resolve to restore our Tourism flagships: the Obudu Mountain Resort, TINAPA, upgrading and effective utilisation of the Calabar International Conference facility", he said.
