THE AMIABLE GOVERNOR
Governor Obaseki meant well for the good people of Edo State.I admire his zero tolerance to corruption in the State.
There is a popular saying that goes like this,”TO CONTINUE TO DO THE SAME THING AND EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULT IS WHAT IS CALLED INSANITY”.In order to get different result, you have to do things differently.
This is what our Amiable Governor is doing, Bringing and attracting investment to the state. He is just a creative Governor, that meant good for the state and Nigeria in general.The Governor’s forum understand this fact hence, Governor Godwin Obaseki has been appointed by the Nigerian Governors Forum to chair a techinical committee that will facilitate the release of 750 million dollars grants to the 36 states of the federation.
The facility was approved by the World Bank in 2018 under the Nigeria States Fiscal Transparency, Accountability and Sustainability and is expected to elapse by December 2022.

CHECKOUT THE FOLLOWING FACTS:-
none of the 18 Local Government Councils of the state could pay salaries under the last administration
The 18 local government councils of the state were owing salaries and pension entitlements at the time the last administration was leaving office
All these were occasioned by the deployment of non-state actors as revenue collectors who deprived the government of revenue, for the indebtedness of the local government councils.
According to reliable records, in the last dispensation, the 18 LGAs were owing salaries; they could not pay. Pensioners were demonstrating at Ring Road on a daily basis and teachers were not paid too. But as at today, the good news is that the same LGAs that were getting N1.5 million during that time now get a minimum of N85 million monthly.
“Out of the 18 LGAs that were owing salaries, 15 have been able to clear these arrears and are paying salaries as and when due.
“Of course, the thugs will not be happy about this.But the Obaseki-led administration needed to fight thuggery to bring sanity to the state.”
The governor said he would continue to demonstrate prudence in handling the state’s resources, paying salaries as and when due, among other laudable feats.
LET PEACE REIN IN EDO STATE AS GOVERNOR OBASEKI TAKE THE STATE TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
