Cross River Youth Leader Accuses Governor’s Deputy Chief of Staff of Mishandling Ward Funds

A Cross River youth leader has accused Deputy Chief of Staff Boniface Okache and Yala LGA Chairman Fred Okem of controlling the distribution of funds allocated to Yala. He alleges that ₦10 million intended for O’oh Ward was collected by Okache’s aide and passed on to him, and has questioned how the money was used and whether ward stakeholders were consulted. The youth leader also raised questions about a separate ₦100 million allocation and says Okache’s rejoinder did not address the allegations. These claims have not been independently verified. He is calling for transparency and accountability over the funds.
