Governor Godwin Obaseki congratulates Victor Osimhen.
Here's the statement the Governor released:

I heartily congratulate Edo son and Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, on his Prix Marc-Vivien
Foé win, awarded to the Best
African Player in the French Ligue
One. He is doing Edo proud at Lille
Olympique Sporting Club (LOSC
Lille), and we celebrate him for
being an enviable ambassador of
our dear state.
My administration is on course in
encouraging more sporting talents to take to sports like Osimhen, with the setting up of the Edo State Sports Commission and the improved investment in sports development, resulting in the revamp of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium and construction of 20 mini-stadia across the 18 local government areas in the state.
We are desirous of making our
sports sector a profitable and viable node in our diversified economy.
This informed all the investment
we are making. It should be such
that youths would have a plethora of options to choose from when they are faced with making career choices. So, we are engaging them in productive sectors of the economy. Grassroots sports is one of such avenues we are engaging our young people.
