Obaseki pledges extension of service years, forwards Harmonised Retirement Age Bill for teachers to Edo Assembly

The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has disclosed plans by his administration for the extension of the service years of teachers in the State.

To achieve this, the governor has forwarded the Harmonised Retirement Age Bill for the extension of retirement age for teachers in the State to the Edo House of Assembly (EDHA).

Obaseki revealed this when he addressed teachers at the 2023 Teachers’ Day ceremony held at the Conference Hall of Teachers House in Siluko Road, Benin City.

The bill, he said, is to harmonise the present service and retirement age of teachers, which provides for the extension of the service years from 30 to 35 years and retirement age from 60 to 65 years, noting that as soon as the House passes the bill into law his administration will commence its implementation with immediate effect.

According to him, “As per release of approval letters for a harmonised retirement age for teachers, I don't see why you should worry. I will not say something that I will not do?

“This is an issue of law. I have sent a bill to the House of Assembly to pass it into law and domesticate it and as soon as I get it from the House of Assembly, I will begin to implement it.”

The governor commended the teachers for their commitment to the education sector of the state and implementing the policies of the administration with due diligence, with special reference to the EdoBest policy, which he said has been hugely successful and acclaimed globally.

To this end, he said his administration has the interest of the teachers at heart as they have done well to develop the education sector as the foundation for the accelerated growth of the State, stressing that he would continue to do all within his powers to ensure that their welfare is placed on the first charge in the State.

The governor also promised the teachers that his administration will pay them half of their December salaries in addition to the full month's salaries, alongside the 13th month promised Edo State workers.

“Teachers say I should give them palliatives or gifts for today. I have already promised all workers in Edo State that you will get your 13th month salaries this year. What I will add as a gift to celebrate the teachers because of the World teachers’ day celebration is that, all the teachers will get an additional half a month bonus,” he said.

Obaseki’s House of Assembly Victory, is driving APC crazy --Efe Igbinosa

Over the last few hours, the lameduck propaganda arm of the APC has churned out several spurious news just to discredit Governor Obaseki’s HOA victory. Despite what the naysayers and the supposed political Maradona have said and done, PDP, under the leadership of Governor Obaseki is already firmly poised to take the majority seats in the house, Come May 2023.

It is this sterling record of the governor that APC are determined to darken at all cost. It is driving them crazy because it has finally put to bed the demystification of their tin god, Oshiomhole, who thought he was still popular, but never knew Edo people took him for a clown and joked with him in market places.

No matter the number of propaganda the tired and clueless APC media arm throws at us in the coming days, we would continue to use them as a ladder. Our ascendancy will never be matched by this bitter little devils.

Obaseki is on the Rise again!!!

What has Governor Godwin Obaseki done in Edo they ask?

We start training of 10,000 Civil and Public Servants tomorrow in collaboration with the Office of the Head of Service, Edo State.

As an Ugoneki woman who came from the private sector to join Government, one of the things that sold this role for me was the Governor’s focus on education.

Look!

Poverty is weaponised in Nigeria. When politicians keep you in the dark, they can buy your vote with only 5,000 Naira less than 10 USD every 4 years.

However, when you receive an education, you are forever free from mental slavery.

This week we will start off with an Introduction to Project Management Course, which will be brought to us by the Project Management Institute, Nigeria Chapter. Our workers are excited and so am I.

At a time when knowledgeable people can japa legally, we are upskilling and retooling our workforce. Think about the multiplier effects of this singular act.

I’m sure you understand why this is a Governor Obaseki Stan account! I admire those in the arena not critics who cannot dare where others do.

I admire visionary leaders!

May Edo always win, Ise.

Vote PDP for sustained progress.

"By their fruits ye shall know them".

Our lord Jesus Christ emphasized this in his teachings and this statement has cumulated into a reality and its relevance remains timeless.

Governor Nyesom Wike, who is the Executive Governor of Rivers State once had a fracas with Governor Godwin Obaseki when he ranted and raved that Obaseki is ungrateful and a serial betrayal.

At that time, a lot of Edolites especially those in the opposing APC and some disgruntled PDP party faithful who saw the Edo governor as a tight fisted dictator, where less petaled about the Edo governor's perspective of the issue. They were sentimentally and sensationally suede towards the popular side of the dance wagon.

Governor Godwin Obaseki regardless of the burning issues then of accusations and counter accusations by aggrieved loyalists, party members and fieced opposition of the APC spear headed by Adams Oshiomole remained dogged, focused and continued to forge ahead with his 'M.E.G.A.' agenda by delivering on the goods of providing both basic social amenities and an enabling environment for the greatness of Edo.

Apparently, the said Governor Wike who was then the starboy of the moment, has today shown the stuff he is made off and proved himself and were he belongs. He had no moral justification to antagonize Edo's chief executive officer and refer to him then as a serial betrayal.

Oshiomole and his APC who were both trusted with state powers and resources, ran Edo state and the nation into crisis and brutal indebtedness. They also have no moral justification to antagonize Obaseki and demand for a second chance.

Therefore, with the turnout of national political events lately, we now know who the true betrayals are, don't you?

Hence, Edo state once again is in the threshold of a nationwide political tsunami at our doorstep. who out of the both titans should we clinch to or allow to be swept away to eternity? Perhaps, who we decide will survive, shall be one that will not sacrifice the destinies of the Edos for self-aggrandizement.

Vote wisely and strategically,

Vote PDP.
