Calabar.
Cross Riverians and indeed the world over will be celebrating the 15th edition of Calabar Festival and Calabar Carnival in the next few weeks, having witnessed the first edition of the festival in 2005.
Undoubtedly, the Calabar Carnival has undergone tremendous transformation in style, in content and in panache within the last 4 editions of the celebration, occasioned by the many innovations injected by the administration of His Excellency Governor Ben Ayade. This is visible in the reforms of the festival content and of course strengthening the participation of the International Community in the activities of the Calabar Carnival.
While the Cross River State Society continue to pour encomiums and words of appreciation to the Pathfinder and the Leader of the new Cross River State for his inelastic capacity and creativity in developing the socio- economic component of the Carnival to swell the pockets of the business Community in the State, Farmers equally celebrates the privileges of their heritage.
The fortunes of Farming rings bells, as echoed by the third American President, Thomas Jefferson, who posited that "Farmers are the most important citizens", having studied the tremendous contributions of Farming activities in building the Economy of America.
This is the case of the Digital Governor, His Excellency Senator Prof Ben Ayade, who in his dedication to "Humanity" has transformed the Livelihoods of the rural farmers in the State by making Farming practices, an interesting business venture.
Cross Riverians are enjoined to participate in this laudable and sustainable Revolution.
This life changing network of Transformation & Economic Empowerment is attained through Agricultural Entrepreneurship:
Support Governor Ben Ayade Agro Industrialization!
Be an Agropreneur!!
Enlist in the Farmers Band !!!.
