Senator Gershom Bassey, the Senator representing the Southern Senatorial District of Cross River State in the Red Chambers of the National Assembly has expressed certainty that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will overwhelmingly win elections in the entire State come 2019.
Senator Bassey stated this during a recent town hall meeting with stakeholders, stalwarts and party faithfuls of the PDP from Bakassi Local Government Area, held in his Asari Eso country home.
He said his confidence in the electoral victory for PDP emanates from the fact that members of the national assembly and the state governor, Senator Ben Ayade have all performed creditably in the last three years, which according to him, have amassed support of Cross Riverians that would lead to eventual re-election into various offices in 2019.
“Essien Ayi has done well and Gershom Bassey has done well and I believe the governor is doing well and we will continue to commit ourselves to the wellbeing of the people so I am sure PDP will win the entire state in all elections come 2019,” Senator Bassey remarked.
Senator Bassey stated that several projects that will elevate the living standard of the people, like the Ikang Road, etc. have been included in the federal budget for 2018, revealing that recently, himself and the governor were with the FERMA Managing Director in Abuja where he gave assurance that all roads in the state would be rehabilitated.
The lawmaker pointed out that life- transforming projects attracted through him like the Oil and Gas Park in Odukpani, the Federal Polytechnic to be sited in Akpabuyo and other numerous prominent projects would serve as scorecard which will inform the people’s decision to vote appropriately in 2019.
Senator Bassey assured the people that suitably qualified members of Bakassi extraction will be included in Oil and Gas businesses using his position as a member of the Down Stream Oil Sector Committee of the Senate so that they too can become players in the sector in the near future.
Senator Bassey maintained that he has been able to achieve the campaign promises of supporting education, job creation, small scale businesses and entrepreneurial development through his many projects and programmes which have led to the emancipation of the people.
He assured the Bakassi people that he will do more empowerment programmers to ensure everyone benefits, as well as inclusion of more women into the scheme of things.
He promised the people that transformers will be provided to areas where none existed and replace damaged ones to enable more people have access to electricity.
Articulating his views, Hon. Eric Ani Esim, erstwhile Chairman of Bakassi said the peple of the Bakassi are impressed with the performance of the Senator, adding that in 2019, Gershom Basssey remains their choice.
The event that drew attendance from the kit and kin of Bakassi, depicted an atmosphere of unalloyed solidarity for Senator Gershom Bassey and the people’s readiness to re-elect him in 2019.
