EDO state governor, Godwin Obaseki, and his deputy, Philip Shaibu, will be inaugurated for second term on November 12.
Obaseki, in a press statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy, Crusoe Osagie, noted that the inauguration will be fused with the yearly Alaghodaro Summit to showcase the “numerous” achievements, reforms and initiatives of his administration and engage with key stakeholders in assessing progress made in the governor’s first term in office.
“Plans are in top gear for the inauguration. Benin City has become a beehive of activities.
“The Alaghodaro Summit, which showcases reforms, policies and programmes implemented by the administration, aims at opening up the space for private investment, inclusive economic growth and improvement of the people’s livelihood.”
“In the next four years, we will consolidate on the achievements recorded in basic education, as more teachers are being recruited to teach in rural and remote communities, under the Edo Supporting Teachers to Achieve Results (Edo STAR) teaching fellowship programme across the state’s three senatorial districts,” he said.
