I Will Focus More On Human Capital Development – C/River APC Candidate

Cross River State All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate Senator Bassey Edet Otu, said he will focus more on human capital development if elected governor of the state.

Otu pledged to turn around the state’s fortunes and increase the living standard of at least 90 percent of those residing in it.

He made the pledge while speaking at the commissioning of Victory Group secretariat, located at Ivara Esu Drive, along the State Housing Estate Calabar, during the weekend.

In his remarks, shortly after receiving the sum of N30 Million donated to the APC governorship candidate by ‘Victory Group’ which is made up of Prof. Ben Ayade’s appointees, Otu said the cash would go a long way to assist him in kick-starting his campaign.

Receiving the cash from director general of Victory Group, Mr. Joseph Edet La,shakara, on behalf of the group, Otu said, “I shall focus more on human capital development to drive home development and eradicate poverty troubling our people.
