Violence: We require N5bn to fix vandalised centre says Ayade

 

Cross River State Governor, Prof Ben Ayade on Monday declared that the state will require a whooping N5 billion to repair the Calabar International Conference Centre (CICC) vandalised by hoodlums.

The governor spoke on Monday on Monday, while reaffirming the curfew imposed on Calabar and its environs.

The hoodlums had on Friday and Saturday taken advantage of the #ENDSARS protests and looted items in the centre after they vandalised it.

“It will take the state government N5 billion to bring back the Calabar International Conference Centre, the beauty of Cross River State.

“This is not the Cross River that I was born into; it is unlike us,’’ the governor said. Ayade said that the action would have negative impact on the progress of the state’s industrialisation efforts aimed at jobs creation.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that police and other security agencies deployed to the town had started raiding the suspected criminal hideouts with a view to recover the looted items. (NAN)
