The immediate past governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, has embarked on what he describes as a well-deserved post-tenure vacation.

This break, according to him, will give him the time to unwind and prioritize his health, with plans to undergo extended medical checks after the eight demanding years he spent leading the state.

This news was released by Crusoe Osagie, Obaseki’s longtime spokesperson, who issued a statement on Wednesday.

In the statement, Osagie conveyed the former governor’s gratitude to God and the people of Edo State and Nigeria, acknowledging the opportunity he had to serve.

Reflecting on his time in office, Obaseki expressed a deep appreciation for the support and trust shown to him throughout his administration, adding that his hopes for the future of the state remain strong.

He encouraged all Edo citizens, both in Nigeria and abroad, to remain optimistic and united, and to continue praying for the state’s peace, progress, and prosperity.

Obaseki concluded his two-term governorship on November 11, 2024, passing the mantle to the newly elected governor, Monday Okpebholo.

The transition marked the end of an administration that focused on various reforms, especially in areas such as public service, infrastructure, and education, as Obaseki sought to modernize Edo State.

His successor, Okpebholo, brings a fresh perspective to Edo’s leadership and secured his position after a closely contested election.

Okpebholo, representing the All Progressives Congress (APC), triumphed over key opponents including Asue Ighodalo of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party.

On Tuesday, Okpebholo was officially sworn in as the governor of Edo State.

“Stop Using Poverty as an Excuse for Security Threats” – Wike To Abuja Beggars

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has defended his recent crackdown on beggars in Abuja, explaining that the measure aims to address growing security threats in the nation’s capital.

In October, Wike declared a “war on beggars,” aiming to reduce the rising presence of street beggars across Abuja.

Speaking on Wednesday during a live media briefing at his Abuja office, Wike addressed these concerns, highlighting the link between security and the need to regulate street activities.

He explained that while poverty remains an ongoing challenge, it should not be used as an excuse to overlook potential security risks.

Wike pointed out that in many cities around the world, urban policies limit street begging to ensure public safety, and Abuja should be no different, especially as it hosts major government offices, embassies, and businesses.

The former Rivers State governor emphasized that security in the FCT cannot be taken lightly.

He noted that some beggars in the city may not be as innocent as they appear.

In his view, there’s a real risk of criminals and terrorist informants disguising themselves as beggars to gather information on individuals, tracking residents’ routines and potentially relaying crucial details to criminal networks.

Wike highlighted that no country has fully eliminated poverty or unemployment but argued that in the face of security threats, a balance must be struck.

“There are people who could easily position themselves near your home or office under the guise of begging,” Wike said.

“But they’re actually monitoring your movements—knowing when you leave and return.

We have to take proactive measures.”
