A People’s Democratic Party (PDP) support group in Cross River State, Reclaim Cross River (RCR), has said that the party is not contesting against the All Progressives Congress (APC), but against other political parties.

Founder of the group, John George, who  made this known in a statement yesterday in Abuja,  said the group sees other political parties that will be in the ballot paper as PDP’s opposition.  He stated that the group is at the forefront of the campaign to elect a PDP governor, Senators, House of Representatives and State Assembly members in the state at next year’s general election.

Declaring support for the PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa,  he said the PDP will sweep the polls from the presidency to state Assembly elections in Cross River State.

He said: “In ensuring that the PDP wins all elective positions from the governorship down the ballot  in the state, RCR is also campaigning for our Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Senator Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa.


“The PDP will sweep the polls from the presidency to state Assembly elections in Cross River State.

“Reclaim Cross River is a child of necessity. Recall that during the tenure of former governor, Mr. Donald Duke Cross River was the tourist destination of choice in Nigeria. In fact, visitors came from outside Nigeria to visit the state. This legacy was sustained with renewed infrastructural development by Senator Liyel Imoke between 2007 and 2015.

“So our mission is to reclaim and rescue the Cross River. With a solid grassroots structure  spanning all the polling units where we have Coordinators up to the state level, the Reclaim Cross River campaign is spreading like wildfire.

“We are not leaving anything to chance, especially given that other parties aside APC, In fact, in Cross River State, we are not contesting against APC, we are contesting against other political parties”.
