The embattled Governor through his Secretary to the State Government, Osarodion Ogie claimed that the “development is in line with efforts to reorganise the governance structure to enhance efficiency in service delivery to Edo people”.

The about 220 affected appointees, with no specific job description, were nominated by leaders from the various Wards and Local Government Councils across the state...who have since fallen out of favour with the state government. This is not the first time Obaseki he will be sacking his political aides.

Onimawo and spewing absolute gibberish! What has the poor former VC got to do with the Selection Panel’s remit over the appointment of Principal officers for Ambrose Alli University?...
