The Governor of Cross River State, Bassey Otu, has said that the state’s 2024 budget will be fully implemented under transparent supervision.
He stated this on Friday in Calabar while declaring open a one-day stakeholders’ budget consultative forum.
“We will ensure that this budget is implemented to the very letter. If we do not implement it appropriately, then we stand the risk of not creating the right opportunity to reduce poverty and hunger or improve healthcare in the state. “We cannot create wealth as a government if we do not budget adequately. We cannot even employ because we would not know the number of people to employ,” Otu said.
