APC’s Growing Dominance in Cross River State: A Vote of Confidence for Otu and Tinubu?
The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Cross River State, Alphonsus Eba, has attributed the party’s growing dominance to the leadership style of Governor Bassey Edet Otu and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In a recent interview, Eba highlighted the party’s consistent political evangelism, which has strengthened its influence across the state.
According to Eba, the party’s growth can be attributed to several factors, including:
The APC is benefiting from the credibility and goodwill associated with the current state and federal administrations.
Many political actors are gravitating towards platforms that are delivering visible development outcomes.
-The opposition party’s internal cracks have weakened it and triggered a wave of defections to the ruling party.
The APC is expecting a significant boost with the anticipated arrival of Senator Jarigbe and his supporters, which is seen as a shift in the political balance in Cross River North. Eba expressed confidence that the party would maintain its momentum, strengthen internal cohesion, and expand its structures across the state.
The APC’s growing dominance in Cross River State is a testament to the party’s effective leadership and its commitment to delivering development outcomes. As the party continues to expand its influence, it remains to be seen how the opposition will respond to the challenge.
