When you walk with God, the journey may take time, but the destination is always worth it.

In the waiting, God is working. His silence is never His absence.

Sometimes, God makes you wait, not to deny you, but to prepare you. The joy we feel today reminds me that when it's God's time, no force on earth can stop the blessing.

His timing teaches us that miracles are not always immediate, but always intentional.

Today marks a bold and historic step forward for Cross River State as we witnessed a powerful unification at the APC Grand Defection Rally held in Calabar.

I was honored to stand with our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), as we welcomed distinguished leaders and patriots into our fold.

Led by Dr. Emana Ambrose-Amawhe from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Rt. Hon. Daniel Asuquo (DANSUKI) from the Labour Party (LP), and Prof. Edde Iji, the State Chairman of the People’s Redemption Party (PRP), this event signals a strong wave of confidence in the leadership and direction of Governor Bassey Edet Otu’s administration.

Represented by his dependable Deputy, Rt. Hon. Peter Odey, the Governor welcomed our new members with open arms and reaffirmed our shared commitment to prosperity, unity, and people-first governance.

As the Commissioner for Wealth Creation and Employment, I see this as a reinforcement of our collective mission—to build wealth, empower citizens, and create sustainable opportunities across every LGA of our dear state.

Congratulations to Barr. Attah Ochinke, SAN, Rt. Hon. Daniel Asuquo, and Lady Emana Amahwe Ambrose on this courageous and visionary move. Together, we are stronger. Together, we move forward.
