Dr. Justin Atiang Beshel, the Commissioner for Science, Innovation, and Technology in Cross River State, has given his assurance to an APC support group noting that his appointment as Commissioner is for service to the good people of Cross River State in line with Governor Bassey Otu’s People’s First Mantra, to provide the benefits of democracy to the
masses.
Dr. Justin Beshel, who made this known in Calabar during a courtesy call by the Amalgamated APC Support Group, stressed his availability as a vibrant man for service to Cross Riverians, saying “I am here to be sent by you. Wherever you feel I can go to get a cup of water for you to drink when you are tasty, I am available to be sent by you. Where your legs cannot carry you to because, by your age, you can’t get yourself involved in strenuous activities, I have the legs, please send me.”
Beshel assured the political group, affirming that the APC party is here to stay in Cross River State. He further advised the group to avoid mirroring politicians who, once elected or appointed into office, tend to ignore the public’s phone calls and develop an arrogant attitude. Beshel reminded them of the significance of these neglected masses, emphasising their importance in the year 2027.
During the courtesy visit, Dr. Edem Ebong, the State Director of the Amalgamated APC Support Group, described Dr. Justin Beshel, a member of the group, as a hardworking, humble, and friendly individual to collaborate with. He encouraged the Commissioner to delve deeper and uncover the positive aspects in the fields of Science, Innovation, and Technology.
Additionally, Elder Victor Antigah, the Deputy Director of the organization, commended Dr. Beshel for the remarkable progress he has made since taking office and urged him to be an exemplary representative of the group.
The meeting had in attendance, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Science, Innovation, and Technology, some management staff, and members of the support group.
