Sacking commissioner not enough, you ought to resign, Edo APC tells Obaseki

Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC) Edo State chapter, Col. David Imuse (rtd) yesterday, said Governor Godwin Obaseki’s sacking of one of his aides for poor performance is a statement of failure, which the governor should own up to.

In a statement signed by Victor Ofure Osehobo, the Assistant State Publicity Secretary of the party, the Edo APC chairman said rather than sacking the Commissioner of Road and Bridges, Mr. Obaseki should have taken the bullet by resigning from office because his government has ceased to function.

Recall that the state government announced the removal of its Commissioner for Roads and Bridges and blamed him for his inability to fix dilapidated roads across the state since the governor’s reelection, two years ago.

Imuse said, “Edo people are not surprised that six years of Obaseki’s government has only brought about sorrow, unwarranted pain and anguish with deliberate falsehood as official policies.
