    NARD 46th AGM: Odey Reaffirms Otu Administration’s Commitment to Healthcare

     

    Cross River State Deputy Governor, Rt. Hon. Dr Peter Odey, has reaffirmed the state government’s commitment to improving healthcare delivery and enhancing the welfare of medical professionals across the state.

    Odey spoke on Tuesday when he received a delegation of the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD), led by its outgoing National President, Dr Mohammad Usman Suleiman, at the Deputy Governor’s Conference Room, Government House, Calabar.

    The Deputy Governor said the administration of Governor Bassey Edet Otu had prioritised healthcare as a key component of its People First agenda, noting that the government would continue to implement policies aimed at improving access to quality healthcare services.

    He assured resident doctors and other health professionals that the administration would continue to create an enabling environment for medical practitioners to work, develop their careers and contribute to the state’s healthcare system.

    According to him, the government is also focused on improving conditions of service, strengthening healthcare institutions and addressing factors contributing to the migration of medical professionals, popularly known as “Japa”.

    Odey said such measures were necessary to retain skilled doctors and other healthcare professionals in the state and ensure continuity in the delivery of quality medical services.

    He also commended NARD for choosing Cross River State to host its 46th Annual General Meeting, describing the event as an opportunity for professional exchange, knowledge sharing and discussions on the future of healthcare delivery in Nigeria.

    Earlier, the outgoing NARD National President, Dr Mohammad Usman Suleiman, commended the Cross River State Government for what he described as its commitment to the welfare of citizens and healthcare workers.
    Suleiman highlighted several interventions by the Otu administration in the health sector, including the reported 100 per cent implementation of the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure (CONMESS).

    He said the implementation had contributed to improving the welfare and working conditions of medical doctors and other health professionals in the state.

    The NARD leader also commended the government for upgrading Primary Healthcare Centres, strengthening the Hospital Management Board, enacting the Medical Quackery Prohibition Law and establishing the Drug Management Agency.

    He said the measures would help strengthen healthcare administration and improve service delivery across the state.

    Suleiman further cited the extension of the retirement age for health workers to 65 years and the lifting of the employment embargo, including the recruitment of medical specialists, as measures capable of strengthening the state’s healthcare workforce.

    He expressed appreciation to the Otu administration for creating what he described as an environment that supports the professional development and welfare of healthcare workers while improving healthcare services for residents.

    Suleiman disclosed that the delegation’s visit was part of activities leading to the 46th NARD Annual General Meeting and the inauguration of the association’s incoming National President, Dr Ogar Emmanuel Idoko.

    The conference is scheduled to hold in Calabar, with the opening ceremony slated for Thursday and the inauguration of the new national president and executive members scheduled for Friday.

  • Advice to Upcoming Aides BY SAM AMADI 

    Advice to Upcoming Aides BY SAM AMADI 

     

    When you work for principals, maintain respect, responsibility and trust when you leave them for whatever reasons.

    I can advise because I have worked with many principals I have course to disagree on many issues, from Gani Fawehinmi, Olisa Agbakoba, Ken Nnamani, Ojo Maduekwe, President Jonathan, etc.

    Never once did I say anything wrong about them when I left. I kept the trust and the respect, and the reciprocated. They continue to love and respect me till date or death.

    Gani wrote me a reference to Harvard and described me as the smartest and most honest person he has met, despite that I left his office in some controversy. Until his death, Gani continued to give me complimentary copies of his Nigerian weekly law report. When I wanted to join Ken Nnamani as Special Adviser, I went to Gani to seek counsel and he encouraged me. He said, “Sam, do not let anyone rubbish your reputation. Act like your former Dean. If they do not accept your advice resign”. I continue to love Gani.

    I cannot talk less about my relationship with my former boss, Olisa Agbakoba. We had small disagreement when I left to US for graduate student. But we made up. I returned back to his law firm. Last week we had a great conversation on Nigerian politics. No matter how we disagree in the future I cannot imagine myself hitting at Olisa. Never. He is my oga for life.

    Ojo Maduekwe continued to consult me for official work (even taking me along for President Yaradua’s state visit to the US as official adviser) despite that I resigned as SA on ground of disagreement. I never speak ill of him. When I left him, I went back with 5 pastors to apologise for leaving him and assure him I would continue to look out for his best interest. I told him it was my fault we could not work well together. Until his death we remained good friends and he would always seek my opinion on any issue with the salutation: ‘great Sam’.

    Till date, I am Ken Nnamani’s PA even as I disagreeded with his membership of APC. As NERC chairman, I was still writing speeches for my oga. Oga is Oga, whether I leave his service or not. Loyalty and trust should count for something.

    I cannot talk about GEJ. He is oga for life. He continues to like and respect me. And I never speak ill of him, even as I can hold critical views of his governance. When I left NERC and people were attacking him for whatever fail of the power sector, I issued a statement to say, “hold me responsible for any failure, not President Jonathan”.

    If you quarrel with your principals and you cannot restrain from abusing them, do not praise yourself, rather mourn for yourself and pray for healing.n

    You are not smart or courageous. You are plain foolish. And you can change. Take this as a friendly advice.

  • First-Class Graduate Appeals for Review of Akwa Ibom Civil Service Recruitment Shortlist

    First-Class Graduate Appeals for Review of Akwa Ibom Civil Service Recruitment Shortlist

    By Admin 

    A First-Class Mathematics graduate of the University of Uyo, Emmanuel Udo, has appealed to the Akwa Ibom State Government to review his exclusion from the final shortlist in the ongoing civil service recruitment exercise, citing what he described as concerns over fairness and transparency in the process.

    Udo, who graduated with First Class Honours in Mathematics in 2023, said he scored 81.67 per cent in the Computer-Based Test (CBT) and also participated in the oral interview for the position of Scientific Officer II (GL 08).

    In an appeal addressed to relevant authorities, including the Head of Civil Service and the Chairman of the Akwa Ibom State Civil Service Commission, Udo requested a review of his recruitment records and clarification on why he was not shortlisted despite his performance in the selection exercise.

    According to him, during the oral interview, he was asked to state Newton’s First Law and provide two real-life examples.

    He said he answered the question correctly and was “openly applauded and commended” by members of the interview panel.

    Udo also dismissed any suggestion that his exclusion could have been linked to his age, saying his date of birth is consistent across his official documents.

    He stated that he completed his primary education in 2008 and secondary education in 2014 before proceeding to the University of Uyo, where he obtained a First Class degree in Mathematics in 2023. He subsequently completed his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme in 2024.

    On his qualification for the position, Udo said the recruitment advertisement listed a Bachelor’s degree in a Natural or Applied Science as one of the requirements for the position of Scientific Officer II.

    He argued that Mathematics falls within the relevant scientific discipline and therefore requested clarification on the basis for his exclusion from the final shortlist.

    “What makes the situation particularly concerning to me is when I see someone getting the recruitment email with a CBT score of 52,” Udo said.

    He, however, stressed that his appeal was not intended to discredit other candidates or seek preferential treatment.

    “I am not raising this issue to discredit any candidate or to demand preferential treatment. Rather, I am simply appealing for fairness, transparency and accountability in a recruitment process that directly affects me,” he said.

    Udo also appealed to the state government to review the relevant recruitment records, including his CBT result, academic qualifications, interview performance and the criteria applied in determining the final shortlist.

    He acknowledged that Governor Umo Eno might not have direct knowledge of the individual circumstances surrounding every stage of the recruitment exercise, but appealed for his case to be examined by the appropriate authorities.

    “I am not a social media influencer, nor am I seeking unnecessary publicity. I am simply a young graduate who worked hard, met the stated requirements, scored 81.67 per cent in the CBT, appeared before the interview panel and gave my best during the process,” he said.

    Udo described the situation as painful, particularly because, according to him, he has not received an explanation for his exclusion.

    “I am not asking for favour. I am asking for fairness, transparency and an opportunity to have my case properly reviewed, if an error or omission occurred,” he said.

    He said his CBT result and other relevant documents were available for verification by the appropriate authorities.

    As of the time of filing this report, there was no response from the Akwa Ibom State Civil Service Commission or the Head of Civil Service addressing Udo’s specific concerns. The claims regarding the selection process and the comparative CBT scores could not independently be verified from the information provided.

    Udo’s appeal now puts the spotlight on the recruitment process and his request for the relevant authorities to clarify the criteria used in arriving at the final shortlist.

    Jarigbe Inspects Ongoing Constituency Projects in Ogoja

     

    By Team Jari Media

    The Senator representing Cross River North Senatorial District, Senator Jarigbe Agom Jarigbe, has commenced an inspection tour of ongoing constituency projects he facilitated across the district.

    The inspection tour began in Nkum-Irede Ward, Ogoja Local Government Area, where the Senator, represented by his Constituency Officer, Mr. Egar Mgbantul, visited the ongoing construction of the PTDF Technology Centre at Ibil Secondary School and the Recreational Centre in Ibil.

    During the inspection, Mgbantul assessed the progress of work at the project sites and commended the engineers, contractors and workers for the work completed so far.

    He, however, called on the contractors to sustain the pace of work and intensify efforts toward ensuring the timely completion of the projects.

    The Constituency Officer also stressed the importance of strict compliance with the approved project specifications, particularly the provisions of the Bill of Quantities (BoQ), while maintaining the required standards of workmanship and quality.

    According to him, the projects are intended to provide lasting benefits to residents of the benefiting communities. He therefore urged all stakeholders involved in their execution to prioritize quality, durability and value for money.

    Mgbantul further noted that upon completion, the projects are expected to contribute to infrastructure development as well as the social and economic advancement of the benefiting communities.

    The inspection is part of Senator Jarigbe Agom Jarigbe’s ongoing monitoring of constituency projects facilitated under his representation, with the stated objective of ensuring that projects are executed according to approved specifications and delivered for their intended purposes.

  • A Brief Citation of the PDP Presidential Candidate, Senator Prof Sandy O Onor

    A Brief Citation of the PDP Presidential Candidate, Senator Prof Sandy O Onor

     

    Senator Professor Sandy Ojang Onor occupies a rare space in Nigerian public life where scholarship and statecraft meet without conflict and “stands as a rare synthesis of intellect, statesmanship, integrity, and unwavering commitment to Nigeria’s progress.”

    Born on February 14, 1966, into a lineage immersed in communal values and cultural pride, his formative years laid the bedrock for a life steeped in intellectual pursuit, moral clarity, and an unwavering devotion to hard work and excellence (Imbua & Ochefu, 1).

    His early education began in 1971 at St. Martin’s Primary School, Ikom Town, Ikom, and later transited to St. Francis Primary School, Obubra, where he completed his primary education and earned the First School Leaving Certificate in 1975. His formative years also coincided with the post-war period, when Nigeria was grappling with the challenges of reconstruction, rehabilitation, and reconciliation.

    In 1976, he gained admission into the famous St. Brendan’s College, Iyamoyong, Obubra, a school revered for its academic rigour and committed teachers, which played a formative role in sharpening his intellect, refining his discipline, and introduced him to wider intellectual horizons. He obtained his West African School Certificate in 1981, distinguishing himself as a student of exceptional promise.

    Further phase of his academic journey began in 1983, when he was admitted into the prestigious Department of History and International Studies, University of Calabar, Calabar, where he came fully into his own as a scholar and an intellectual.

    He graduated in 1987 at the top of his class with a B.A. (Hons) in History, a feat that earned him automatic employment by the university as a Graduate Assistant-a privilege reserved for the institution’s most outstanding graduates (widely celebrated by senior historians in department, including Professors Okon Uya, Odey Erim, Geoffrey Uzoigwe, Monday Abasiattai, and Monday Noah).

    He later enrolled for a Master’s degree in History. However, his progress in the programme was so impressive that he was advanced to the Ph.D. after one year – a rare academic recognition of intellectual maturity and research competence. He completed his program in 1993 at the age of 27, “producing a thesis that remains one of the most methodologically sound and empirically grounded studies on the Ejagham people, spanning both Nigeria and Cameroon territories.”

    Senator Onor’s political odyssey began in earnest when he served Etung Local Government Area as Executive Chairman from 1999 to 2002, a tenure widely regarded and remembered as a golden era in the council’s history. His rise on the national stage was equally impactful when he served as Deputy National President and later Acting National President of the Association of Local Government of Nigeria (ALGON).

    After his tenure as Chairman of Etung, he went on to serve as the Cross River State Coordinator for the Obasanjo/Atiku re-election Campaign in 2003, before becoming the much-celebrated Director-General of the PDP Campaigns in the state.

    His passion for reform led to his appointment as a delegate to the 2005 National Political Reform Conference, where he made significant contributions to discussions on national integration and development.

    In 2019, the good people of Cross River Central Senatorial District sent him to the Red Chambers of the National Assembly, where he was sworn in on June 11, 2019. During his four-year tenure, he proved himself a legislator of substance and was unanimously pronounced the “Orator of the 9th Senate,” following a motion moved by Senator Ahmed Lawan, then President of the Senate.

    During his four-year tenure in the Senate, he proved himself to be a legislator of substance, sponsoring and championing several critical bills, most notably the Bill to Establish the Advanced Healthcare Development Fund, a testament to his vision for equitable and accessible modern healthcare in Nigeria.

    Through Zonal Intervention Projects, he brought infrastructure to communities to address the needs of his constituents and facilitated the employment of dozens of Cross Riverians in key federal institutions, including universities, the Nigerian Defence Academy, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), and the Police Academy, Wudil, among several other government institutions and agencies.

    In 2023, driven by a deep abiding love for his people, he offered himself for service as the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Gubernatorial Candidate in Cross River State. “Though, he did not ascend to the governorship, he emerged with something far more enduring; the unshakable admiration and trust of his people, and a permanent place in the conscience of Cross River State.”

    Though known to many today as a distinguished politician, Senator Professor Sandy O. Onor’s truest and most enduring identity is that of a scholar; an academic historian of exceptional brilliance and distinction. As a historian, he carved an intellectual niche defined by originality, courage, rigour, and a relentless quest for historical veracity and academic integrity.

    Below is a reflective mapping of the substance and relevance of some of his major works:

    – The Ejagham Nation in the Cross River Region of Nigeria (1994; revised in 2016).

    – Local Governance in Nigeria: Evolution, Growth, Problems, and Solutions (2005).

    – The Leopard Touch: Historical Essays on the Ejagham of the Cross River Region of Nigeria (2018).

    – Foundations of Nigeria’s Unity (2021).

    – Leadership, Unity and Self-Determination in Cross River State: A Historical Perspective (2021).

    His intellectual impact is also evident in his collaborative works with Professor Dave Imbua and Dr. Patrick Odey, including the co-authored volume, A Companion to African History in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries (2017).

    He has also edited and co-authored major volumes such as The Nigerian Civil War Narratives from Some Border Communities (2016) and The Man, His Forest and the Politics of Cross River State: Essays in Honour of James Oshuo Ewah (2018), partnering with eminent scholars such as Professor Donald Omagu and Professor Yakubu Ochefu.

    The chapters of his life already written are rich, instructive, and inspiring. Still, the pages ahead lie open, alive with promise and brimming with the possibility of even greater service.

    Cross River Selects 1,000 Youths for Electric Vehicle Repairs, Maintenance Training

    By Admin 

    The Cross River State Government has announced the selection of 1,000 young Cross Riverians for a six-month training programme in electric vehicle repairs and maintenance as well as tricycle coupling.

    The programme, according to the Chairman of the Cross River State Youth Empowerment Scheme, Dr. Kalita Joseph Aruku, is part of efforts by the state government to develop the manpower required to maintain its growing investment in electric mobility.

    Aruku said Governor Bassey Edet Otu had initially approved the training of 100 young Cross Riverians in electric vehicle repairs and maintenance and tricycle coupling.

    However, following strong interest from residents seeking to participate in the programme, the governor directed that the scope of the training be expanded to accommodate more beneficiaries.

    The expanded programme is being implemented in partnership with the Federal Government and Shema Energy.

    According to Aruku, the training, which has an estimated value of more than ₦600,000 per student, will be provided free of charge to all selected beneficiaries.

    The beneficiaries will undergo six months of training and receive a monthly stipend throughout the duration of the programme.

    He also announced that, contrary to the initial arrangement, the training will now be conducted in two locations, Calabar and Ogoja, to make participation more accessible to beneficiaries across the state.

    “Congratulations to all beneficiaries,” Aruku said, while assuring other young people who were not selected that additional empowerment opportunities were being planned.

    “If it has not reached you, it does not mean it has passed you,” he said, adding that another major training programme was in the offing.

    Aruku reaffirmed the commitment of the Cross River State Youth Empowerment Scheme to implementing programmes aimed at equipping young people with relevant technical skills and expanding economic opportunities across the state.

  • C’River Police Denies Cultist Cover-Up, Disciplines Officers Over Viral Video Leak

    C’River Police Denies Cultist Cover-Up, Disciplines Officers Over Viral Video Leak

    The Cross River State Police Command has denied allegations that it is shielding suspected cultists linked to a viral video showing sporadic gunfire from a moving vehicle in Calabar.

    The Command, in a statement signed by its Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Eitokpah Sunday Akata, on Sunday, September 20, 2026, said the suspect arrested in connection with the incident remains in police custody and is undergoing investigation.

    The statement was issued in response to allegations published by the social media handle “Portrait Peterson,” which claimed that the police were attempting to cover up the identities of persons allegedly involved in the incident.

    According to the Command, the arrest of the suspect was not a “formality” or an attempt to divert attention from the allegations.

    Police said the suspect would be prosecuted if investigations establish a prima facie case against him.

    The Command also said it was investigating the identities of two masked persons seen inside the vehicle in the viral footage who were alleged to be police officers.

    It said the suspect had not identified the two individuals, adding that investigators were independently working to determine whether they were members of the police force and, if so, establish their identities, roles and circumstances surrounding their presence in the vehicle.

    The police further disclosed that officers involved in an unauthorised video interview with the alleged suspect, which was subsequently leaked online, had been identified and disciplined in line with established police procedures.

    The Command said it would not protect personnel found to have acted improperly or compromised investigations involving suspected offenders.

    It also urged the operator of “Portrait Peterson” and anyone with credible and verifiable evidence identifying the masked persons or others allegedly involved in related cult activities to submit such information to the police to assist the ongoing investigation.

    The Command reiterated its commitment to tackling cultism and violent crime in Cross River State, stressing that anyone found culpable would face the law regardless of status or affiliation.

    Members of the public were advised to report emergencies or provide security-related information through the Command Control Room on 0706 797 7330 or 0705 335 5415.
