This is not the first the Cross River governor will break down in tears publicly. In May 2020, he shed tears during the inauguration of an anti-tax agency in his state.
In tears, the governor said: “I never knew that five years as governor, there would still be people living in thatched houses in Cross River. I almost cried because I knew how prepared I was but it didn’t end the way I dreamt for the state. I wish God would intervene because I really wish I could help. It’s very painful.”
He stated that if it pleases God, he should take his wealth so that other people in the state could be rich.
Very empathetic person. God bless you Sir
