Obaseki Links Delayed Appointment Of Commissioners To Defection From APC by kahal29(op): 10:52am On Sep 13, 2021
After running Edo State for about a year without a cabinet, Governor Godwin Obaseki has hinted that he would unveil his commissioners in “a couple of days.”

He attributed the delay in the formation of his cabinet to his defection from the All Progressives Congress to the Peoples Democratic Party shortly before the last Edo state governorship election, which he won.

Obaseki, represented by his Chief of Staff, Osaigbovo Iyoha, spoke after being conferred with the award of ‘Politician of the Year,’ during the Leadership Newspapers Conference and Awards ceremony held at the International Conference Centre in Abuja on Saturday.

The event was with the theme, “National and regional insecurity: The role of political and non-political actors in stabilisation and consensus building.”

He said, “Ours has been a build-up to an uncommon election. The issue of being in the APC before we moved to the PDP are well documented and don’t need further explanation. But in the next couple of days, the cabinet will be announced.

“The only way we can repay for all the votes we got in the last election is to perform better than we did in the first tenure. For us, it is the sign of recognition of good governance and delivery of dividends of democracy to the people because the people are at the centre of everything and we appreciate the LEADERSHIP Group.

“Five years ago if anyone had predicted that Governor Godwin Obaseki would win an award for being Politician of the Year, I think nobody would believe it and we give thanks to God Almighty.

“And the people of Edo State thank the Leadership Group for this honour, we appreciate it. And for Godwin Obaseki, he’s driven by the new lessons of governance, which is service to the people and the only way that he can say thank you for this award is by doing more for the people of the state.”

cool




We know the game very well... He is psyphoning his money back using consultants

Less money to share to Political office holders (APC, or PDP) more money he gets paying consultant and revenue collectors less than 3% cut

Seyi Makinde is also using that same format, his own greed is just too much, he, Auxiliary and his wife's Rivers State Kalabari people handle everything revenue, contracts , he is so petty that he even drags ordinary school chair repairs and renovation with contractors, and Iyaloja, babaloja title with Olubadan am sure he supplies pure water at functions

He needs to agree with his new party members and the old one, but it's taken too long.

When this guy was accusing Osho before the last election in Edo state, I knew he would be worse than Osho, I am not surprised with how terrible he'd become over a short period of time.

Them they shout Tinubu up and down, but the man is visionary for Lagos. Irrespective of everything he does or claim he does, he doesn't jeopardise Lagos' development and welfare.

Even though we know things are not faring well with Edo and the economic state of her people, we still would not take your ego away from you. Truly, Edo is not Lagos and that is a fact!

Can we say Tinubu is not a political Godfather in Lagos? No! Indeed, he is.

Assuredly, what we can say is that governance in Lagos is giving people more opportunities to thrive than Edo state. The government in Lagos state is achieving more and more than Edo state.

We permit your ego and pride. It takes nothing away from us. Last last, state wey dey suffer no say him dey suffer!
