• Women barricade road over alleged relocation of market Former Bakassi Strike Force militants, yesterday, barricaded gates leading to the Cross River State Governor’s Office, demanding full implementation of a Memorandum of Understanding signed with the Federal Government, Cross River and Akwa Ibom States. At about 8:00 a.m.
The protesters, led by one Timaya, denounced the alleged non-payment of money they were supposed to have received since December 2018. He added: “Since 2018, the governor has reneged on the agreement. After we laid down our arms in December 2018, we went for training and the governor promised that we were going to be given starter packs and be integrated into the system. Instead of fulfilling his promise, the governor went and put up a signpost in Bakassi to say he has paid us. He has since refused to attend to us and we are very angry.
