Cross River State is once again entangled in the knotty issue of zoning of the governorship position in the preparation for the 2015 election. It is one of the greatest threats to the unity of the ruling PDP and by extension the entire state. Where the next governor will come from has become a hard nut to crack.
When Governor Liyel Imoke told journalists at a media parley that Cross River North Senatorial District will produce his successor, and the enlarged caucus of the party put a seal on it, discerning political observers took the endorsement with a pinch of salt. How do you explain the entrance of a southerner, Mr. Gershom Bassey into the 2015 governorship race in the state?
His campaign stickers prepared by three different support groups from his zone now adorn many vehicles in the state say it all. News of his aspiration could not have come at an inappropriate time, according to critics and political observers. Just when citizens of the state were made to believe that the PDP leadership has finalised arrangement on the north producing the next governor, Bassey, a southerner whose zone produced former Governor Donald Duke [1999-2007] has joined the race under the 24-year agenda of the triumvirate of himself, Duke and Imoke to govern the state.
