Cross River State Governor Bassey Otu has started the construction of a new annex for the Duke Town Cathedral in Calabar, a move seen as part of his support for faith-based and community development projects.
The governor was represented at the foundationlaying ceremony by his Chief of Staff, Emmanuel Ironbar, who attended the event with his wife, Elder Virginia Ironbar, along with government officials, state lawmakers, and other dignitaries.
Ironbar said the new annex shows the governor’s dedication to both spiritual and community development in the state.
“His Excellency Apostle Sen. Otu is a man of deep faith, a lover of God, and a dedicated supporter of the gospel mission in Cross River State and beyond,” he said.
He thanked the church and the congregation for their continuous support and prayers, assuring them that the government would continue to back initiatives that promote peace and unity.
