Cross River Governor Promise To Eradicate Unemployment
By PHILIP EFIONG for PROUDSTARS.
Cross River state Governor, Professor Ben Ayade has vowed to commit himself to eradicating or at least reducing to the barest minimum, the scourge of unemployment in the state by end of his first tenure in office.
Ayade made this promise at the City Lighting event which took place at the Millennium Park in Calabar to herald the beginning of the ‘super week’ of activities at the ongoing Calabar Festival on Monday, December 21.
The governor said he will ensure that only policies which will create jobs are prioritized by his administration with a promise that all those willing to work will not be unemployed at the end of his tenure.
“Today we the great people of Cross River state are having reasons to come together and celebrate our annual festival. Today marks a turning point in the philosophical theory of the people of Cross River State. We are redesigning our philosophy and concept to create a new horizon of opportunity for young people. Young people who by no fault of theirs, are facing challenges in their own time.
“As a young man who grew from those challenges and now on the saddle of leadership, I want to commit and challenge, and to tell every Cross Riverian that the new theory behind the carnival this time is that we want to return power to the youths.
