Edo State governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo<\/a>, has set in motion the process of probing<\/a> the administration of his immediate predecessor, Godwin Obaseki<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This was as the governor has approved the constitution of a 14-man State Assets Verification Committee<\/a> to probe the Obaseki administration.<\/p>\n

Governor Okpebholo is set to inaugurate the committee on Tuesday, 26 November, 2024, at the Government House, Benin City.<\/p>\n

Members of the probe committee included Dr. Ernest Afolabi Umakhihe (Chairman); Anslem Ojezua (Deputy Chairman); Prince Kassim Afegbua (member); Hon. Patrick Ikhariale (member); Mr. Taiwo Akerele (member); Hon. Patrick Idiake (member) and Hon. Rasaq Bello-Osagie (member).<\/p>\n

Others were Mr. Fredrick Unopah (member); Frank Osumuede Edebor Esq (Secretary); Mrs. Abdallah Eugenia (member); Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon (member); Pharm. Kenny Okojie (member); Mrs. Lyndsey Tes-Sorae (member) and Hon. Abass Braimoh (member).<\/p>\n

\u201cIn furtherance of the governor\u2019s initiative to set the state on the path of development and accountable leadership, the need to set up a State Assets Verification Committee becomes very imperative.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite repeated calls for a more holistic database of the assets and liabilities of the previous administration, the Godwin Obaseki-led government came up with very scanty and limited assets and liabilities of the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn line with the governor\u2019s campaign promise to ensure probity, accountability and transparency in government, and to deepen the governance process, a committee made up of respected sons and daughters from Edo State has to be constituted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe committee will be inaugurated at the Festival Hall, Government House, Benin City, on Tuesday, 26th November, 2024, by 1pm prompt,\u201d it was stated in a release issued on Sunday by Fred Itua, the Chief Press Secretary to Edo State Governor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
