Speaking on behalf of the Movement, the Director General, Princess Janice Cobham, said Bakassi Babes have come with one voice and one vision, to build, to unite and to serve.
She said the Movement is politically aligned and educationally sound, and is ready to work seriously during the campaigns and during the elections.
