Governor Ben Ayade has said that politicians have no conscience and always fail to fulfill their promises to those who elected them.
Speaking at the flag-off of enrolment into the states’ Basic Health Care Provision Fund (BHCPF), Ayade challenged national assembly members to reveal what they have done for members of their constituents.
The Governor said;
“After donations of Keke, they pay millions to national television to advertise instead of spending the money for the people.
“Let the politician show us what they have done for the people, stop abusing the poverty of the people, when the election comes you look for something to entice the people. When these people have an accident, they don’t have health insurance. Politicians have no conscience. I challenge national assembly members to show the report card of what they have done.
“They never come to Calabar until during elections; the citizens are waiting for you to tell us what they have done.”
