Former governor of Edo State, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, has scored Governor Monday Okpebholo high on his first one month in office,

Oshiomhole said the governor had set a new record in the history of governance in the state.
The senator stated this while speaking with newsmen at his residence in Iyamho, Estako West LGA of Edo State.

Expressing satisfaction with Governor Okpebholo’s pragmatic approach to governance, Oshiomhole expressed joy that Edo people can now experience true and practical governance after eight years of former governor Obaseki.

Oshiomhole said: “We have in the history of Edo, for the first time, a governor who started making appointments from the first day in office. No day or no minute was lost. He has also made a number of profound decisions within these few days in office.

“Everyone in Edo is a witness to the fact that the governor from day one hit the ground running, appointing people into critical positions so that those sectors do not lack. For example, Justice, Health and SUBEB, because the issue of basic education is very dear to his heart and you cannot suspend it for a few minutes.”
