Gratuitous change of Cross River State logo

The new Cross river state logo is totally uncalled for. 50 is not a destination contrary to what our governor thinks and according to the Crossriverwatch, destination cross river talks about a serene, calm place for tourism and commerce .
There are more pressing issues in the state and the logo doesn’t even come close to them. Citizens complain of lack of security, lack of water despite paying bills, deteriorated hygiene, state library and roads. The journey of Airtel should better inform that rebranding without actually putting things in place yields nothing. The issue is not in the logo but in the administration and leadership.
Comparing the new and old logo, a bull is very fierce animal and in no way represents the good nature of the people of Cross river, ironically, it rather shows the present state of the state since this new administration. The former logo has a dolphin, a rather peaceful, friendly yet smart animal and this indeed is a true representation of a true Cross Riverian. The colour red signifies danger, there is a reason red is used for danger signs. The blue colour of the former logo represented calmness and evidently the colour itself is very soothing.
Finally in the aspect of creativity, the former logo is a thousand times more creative compared to the present one. We like to appeal to the Cross River State government to please continue with the destination Cross River logo, seek understanding of it’s representation and work to restore the lost glory of the state.
