2027: Odey Pledges To Restore Cross Riverians’ Hope In Better Future

John Upan Odey has declared that his mission is to restore the confidence of Cross Riverians in the possibility of a better future, stressing the need to create an environment where hard work, enterprise and talent can translate into prosperity.

Odey, who is positioning his message ahead of the 2027 political season, said Cross River State has the human resources, creativity and determination required to achieve sustainable development, but needs an enabling environment that allows its people to thrive.

According to him, the state must provide opportunities for young people to build their futures within Cross River, enable farmers to earn better returns from their produce, support businesses to grow and ensure that every community receives the attention it deserves.

He emphasised that restoring hope among the people goes beyond infrastructural development, job creation and improved public services, noting that the ultimate goal should be to build a state where every Cross Riverian has a genuine opportunity to succeed.

Odey maintained that the people of Cross River deserve a system that rewards hard work, encourages enterprise and creates opportunities for individuals and communities to contribute meaningfully to the state's development.

He further stressed the importance of building a prosperous Cross River where young people can realise their ambitions, farmers can benefit from their labour, businesses can expand and communities can enjoy inclusive development.

Underlining the central message of his vision, Odey declared: "My job is to give Cross Riverians a reason to believe again."

He described the vision as a call to restore public confidence and renew the people's belief that a better Cross River is achievable through purposeful leadership, inclusive development and a shared commitment to progress.

The message is anchored on the slogan, "A Fresh Start — One People, One Cross River," which underscores the need for unity, renewed hope and a collective determination to build a state that works for its people.

Odey's vision document and policy proposals are available on his official website for members of the public seeking further information about his plans for Cross River State.
