Not minding the economic recession ,Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, on Friday, announced the appointment of 192 Special Assistants, a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Osarodion Ogie (Esq.) contained.

The appointees, which represent a true reflection of all the 192 electoral wards in the three Senatorial Districts that make up the state, make history as being products of inclusive and participatory governance in Edo state. Those appointed from each LG therefore represent the number of wards in such local governments.

It would be recalled that Governor Obaseki already instructed people seeking appointments in the state to go to their wards where they will be screened and represent a democratic decision and choice by people at the grassroots.

Meanwhile, it was also revealed that these special assistants would assist the government at the wards where offices would be set up with adequate communication facilities to enable them channel information to the government speedily.

The Special Assistants were also mandated to be the eyes, ears and, where necessary, mouthpiece of the government at their various wards and were tasked with the duty of ensuring that every citizen of Edo State had a say in the administration of the state under Governor Obaseki’s principle of inclusive governance.

Cost of running a 'Government' in Nigeria is too high...
192 Special assistants and advisers,and yet most states depend on federal allocation and world bank loans to function.
What are they assisting and advising on,if not to arrange high class prostitutes for their Bosses every night.
Internally generated revenue remains zero,after eight years,he leaves the state account in Red and his successor inherits an empty treasury and begins the cycle again.
Its worse at the National Assembly level.

Relax people, he's only taking cues from Okowa. Awon were!

He would have shifted it to every family in the state..... Another way to extort money

Commendable. Good one

Ben Ayade style. It is good but will the government be able to pay them all? Ayade employed so many of them yet doesn't pay them.

That number plenty ooo. I hope there is enough fund to pay them as and when due.
If I hear say them dey owe salary...!

192

Something needs to be done and fast, before Nigeria go down the drain, imagine 192 compensation special assistants

They are not really Special advisers per say, but more like assistants working with the grassroots population of Edo state, they are drwn from every local government in the state, and will be in constant touch with the ordinary Edo man and Woman.
