John Owan Enoh as its flag bearer for next year’s governorship elections, the Legislative Writers Forum has congratulated the Senator on his victory at the party’s primaries. The group described the emergence of Sen. Owan as good for democracy and a turning point for the party in the state.

National President of the group Austin Asadu said the legislative writers across the country have always insisted that credible candidates should emerge as candidates of political party. The statement described Sen. Owan as a very credible candidate with the requisite political experience that is needed to turn Cross River State around.

The forum urged the people of the state to ensure that they vote Owan as their next governor in order to bring the state to mainstream politics in the country. “It is disheartening that despite the potentials of a state like Cross River, it has not been able to transform such potentials to better use especially in the past three and half years. It is heartwarming that the APC have decided to bring in someone with experience and connections that can better the lot of the state like Sen. John Owan Enoh. We at the legislative Writers Forum has mandated our members especially those in Cross River state to join forces with him in order to bring good governance to the people of the state come 2019” the statement added.

The forum also commended the National Working Committee of the APC for doing the needful by ensuring the emergence of the chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance. ‘’We commend the leadership of the party especially the NWC for ensuring that a credible personality in the person of Sen. John Owan Enoh is flying the flag of the party. It shows its seriousness to effect leadership change in the state which is what the people are yearning for and it is our belief that he will emerge victorious at the end of the day’’ the statement concluded.
