The Southern Edition of the Mega Street Endorsement Season 1 has commenced in Cross River State with a street walk aimed at highlighting the achievements of the state government and the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The walk started from Calabar Road and continued to Wart Market, where members of the team interacted with residents and traders while canvassing support for Governor Bassey Edet Etu, President Tinubu and other All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates ahead of the 2027 general elections.
At Wart Market, women who gathered to receive the team sang praises of Governor Etu, applauding what they described as his developmental strides and ongoing projects across the state.
The women also expressed their support for the governor and said they were prepared to vote for him and other members of his team in the 2027 elections.
Speaking during the event, the President of the Capital Traders Umbrella Association, Mr Ekpe Okon, commended the governor for what he described as significant developments across Cross River State.
Okon also highlighted the increase in land ownership among residents, noting that more people were now able to acquire land and become property owners in the state.
The Director-General of the Mega Street Endorsement Season 1, Southern Edition, Mr Peter Ejeh, explained that the decision to organise the walk was inspired by the changes and developments his team observed across different sectors of the state.
According to him, the visible efforts of the state government motivated the group to take the message to the streets and encourage residents to support the administration.
Also speaking at the event, Mrs Fanny Odey, GEEP Programme Manager in Cross River State, commended Governor Etu for his efforts and developmental programmes in the state.
The Deputy Chairman of the APC in Cross River State, Mr Ogana Lukpata, also praised the governor, while the state APC Secretary, Mr Patrick Okon, was present at the event and expressed his support for the administration.
The Mega Street Endorsement, is expected to extend to the northern and central senatorial districts of Cross River State as the organisers continue their campaign ahead of the 2027 general elections.
