Governor Otu's Infrastructure Achievements in Cross River
As Nigeria celebrates its 66th independence anniversary, Governor Bassey Edet Otu's administration in Cross River State has surpassed three years in office, focusing on infrastructure recovery and development. Former governors Clement Ebri, Donald Duke, and Liyel Imoke have independently affirmed Otu's achievements, contrasting with opposition narratives led by Benedict Ayade.
The administration has prioritized the recovery of oil wells and infrastructure projects, claiming completion of 127 kilometers of roads without formal ceremonies and over 608 kilometers of various road projects since May 2023. Specific projects include the Ndok-Abakpa-Igoli-Monaya rehabilitation project and the Boki East-West Road, with the 2026 budget allocating N671.27 billion for capital expenditure.
This budget emphasizes road rehabilitation and other infrastructure initiatives, reinforcing the administration's commitment to development amidst political opposition.
