A youth leader of Odukpani Local Government Area of Cross Rivers State, Comrade Kenneth Anam ,has extolled the sterling leadership qualities of Senator Prince Bassey Edet Otu .
According to Anam, Prince Otu remains the best politician to grace the stage of leadership from the Southern Senatorial district and unarguably Cross River State at large..
Speaking at the burial ceremony of Engr Bassey Effiong Bassey Bebs, and at the church when so many Cross Riveriens were celebrating the Senator, the youth leader said, the Senator’s selfless service was evident in his two terms as member of the green chambers and indeed his one term sojourn in the red chambers as Senator representing the Southern senatorial district which is why he still enjoys huge support from the people years after leaving office.

“This for me is a very rare quality and attribute we have missed and about all one feeling we all wish to enjoy again…
“Sadly the evil schemings of the then powers that were robbed us of this heavenly bestowed gift and opportunity in a man who was a POLITICAL MESSIAH of our time,even more disheartening is the pain that no one has dared to fill the gap and wear the shoes he left…
“SWEET PRINCE years after leaving office you’ve remained thesame even SWEETER than the honeycomb and above all you’ve proven that all you did and still do were not deceits or driven by your greed to cling to power…
“Years after years you’ve remained yet the SWEETEST thing that ever happened to us as a people…
