The president of widows in Akpabuyo Local Government Area, who spoke on behalf of other widows, Chief Agnes Dan, stated that the widows had never been political, stressing that having seen the undeniable capacity, intellect and love for Cross River State’s people in the lawmaker, they have decided to put their support for Sandy’s candidacy.

In his remarks, the PDP governorship candidate, Senator Onor lauded the widows for their support, stressing that he was truly very touched about their widows’ mite.
