The Cross River State Governor, Bassey Otu, has said that he will spend the sum of N5 billion to renovate the state governor’s office in Calabar, the state capital to befit his status.
Governor Otu made this known on Friday during an interaction session with journalists in the state, saying that governor’s office ought to be the signpost in the state.
The governor said he would also renovate all the state liaison offices in Abuja, Lagos and elsewhere to similarly carry the same signpost insignia, stressing that the governor’s office was not befitting when he took over power and that renovating it to a befitting standard would help to appeal to investors willing to do business with the state.
“I will not stop spending money to make the governor’s office very befitting. It ought to be the signpost of the state. I will do the same in all our liaison offices.
“It’s when you make your abode or office befitting that will add value and appeal to investors. Filthy environments and poor architectural outlook can discourage.
“The renovations will be done with transparency. It is estimated that the costs of the renovations will be between N3 to N5 billion. But for now the contractors are working pro bono,” PM News quoted the governor as saying.
