Stakeholders in Cross River State have actually said they are no longer pleased with the old generation of politicians in the state.

The stakeholders insist they would endorse aspirations of more youthful and unidentified elements to run for the state governorship position next year.

Speaking at a conference of a group of worried Cross River indigenes under the aegis of the Fresh Hope Movement, the stakeholders said they were tired of old political leaders and would not likely cast their elect them at the next election.

Members of the group, Veteran Journalist, Ubi Inah and Dr Ishmael Okon, a senior speaker at the University of Calabar declared they have actually evaluated the crop of readily available old politicians and provided a vote of no self-confidence.

Inah said, “I have been around for years and as a previous editor of a state-owned paper, I have evaluated the political leaders that emerged since 1999 and would state that another set of young politicians must come up with fresh concepts to raise our beleaguered state.

Dr Okon stated, “It is very important we look towards young men that have actually not soiled their hands, who are including passion and brand-new programs”.

Also dealing with reporters at the conference, Hogan Ita who nurses a governorship ambition, said he is not too young to contest the election, worrying that it is not by age however the ideas and a strong will.

“What rules the world is not age but brains, it is about what is in your brain”, he stated.

“For you to rescue the state, I don’t think anybody who has actually been associated with the failure of the state will have the brain to rescue it.

“We require a brand-new group, a beginner, a new idea to come in and restore the state.”

Ita said governorship is not any herculean task because “we are produced to carry out tasks. Our State is strange and it requires an unique individual to free it.

“We have all seen the issue in the state and we have actually seen the state has actually decreased and requires a rescue mission.”

The gubernatorial hopeful said they have actually come to rebuild the PDP in the state and wait from gross mismanagement.
