I Intend To Help Obaseki Finish Well, Says Edo Deputy Governor Omobayo Godwins

Omobayo, when asked what he will do if he has any altercations with Obaseki in his six-month term, said, “Six months is a very short time that you consider that there could be a bridge. I’m not expecting so much because there’s already a plan on ground, I inherited the plan. My own intention is to assist the governor to finish very well and to make one or two inputs, whether you call them technical inputs, because that is where I find my strength, and some political inputs to add to the subsequent vote that we envisage in September. There’s really not much of a big deal, I already met a plan, already there’s work in progress almost to complete, so I don’t think that would be a problem.”

Omobayo then discussed the plans on ground for Edo State’s development as he said, “We are done with the Benin Masterplan. We are working on Edo central and Edo North Masterplan, and I happen to be critical in that design even before now. So, because Edo North, for me, we have natural resources and we have illegal people coming to mine all of that, thus posing environmental hazards.
