From Aniekan Aniekan, Calabar
Dr Stella Charles Archibong, NDC deputy governorship candidate in Cross River, has withdrawn from the race and declared support for Governor Bassey Otu’s Back to South Movement.
She said the decision followed extensive consultations with elders, family, the Christian community and political stakeholders, and was taken in the collective interest of the state.
Archibong apologised to party members and supporters for any disappointment caused by her withdrawal.
She thanked NDC leadership and her supporters for their loyalty while wishing the party well in future engagements.
Her move is viewed as a significant boost for the Otu administration’s agenda of retaining power in the Southern Senatorial District.
