Tinubu gave me financial support to revamp Obudu Ranch Resort – Gov Otu
Governor Bassey Otu of Cross River State has disclosed that President Bola Tinubu has given him unprecedented support to revamp the famous Obudu Mountain Resort which was abandoned over debts and other issues.
On completing his first 100 days in office last year September, Otu told journalists how the president instructed him to ensure the resuscitation of the Resort as he intends to make it his Camp David in Nigeria.
Otu, in his first-anniversary speech, said he has taken a bold step to bring the resort to life along with other inherited projects.
“My bold return to the Obudu Ranch Resort which has attracted unprecedented support by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in figures which surpass all previous administrations put together.”
To enliven the resort, Otu added that the Obudu International mountain race will resume as part of Carnival Calabar in November 2024.
The governor disclosed further that his government’s effort to complete the Obudu Cargo Airport as well as the ongoing efforts to strengthen the CallyAir fleet with five additional airplanes to reduce the air traffic problems are on course.
