Minna – Gov. Sani Bello of Niger has urged the new governor of Edo, Mr Godwin Obaseki, to build on the successes of his predecessor, Mr Adams Oshoimhole, and take the state to greater heights.
Bello made call in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Malam Jibrin Ndace, on Wednesday in Minna.
He said that the good leadership qualities Oshiomhole demonstrated in the last eight years contributed largely to Obaseki’s victory.
Bello advised Obaseki to build on the solid foundation of his predecessor, and build a modern, progressive state.
“I urge you to live up to your vision of building a modern and progressive Edo state where every citizen is empowered with opportunity to live life in its fullness.
“Above all, you must realize that you are now a governor of all, irrespective of political, ideological, religious and ethnic differences,’’ Bello said.
