Monday Okpebholo has officially been sworn in as the new governor of Edo State, taking over from outgoing governor Godwin Obaseki.
This historic transition was marked by a well-attended inauguration ceremony held on Tuesday at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City, the state capital.
The inauguration, held just two months after Okpebholo’s victory in the Edo gubernatorial elections on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform, signifies the beginning of a new political era.
Addressing the crowd, Okpebholo expressed gratitude to the people of Edo for their support, promising to deliver a “prosperous and united” state during his tenure.
“I am honored to serve as your governor, and I pledge to dedicate myself fully to the growth and unity of Edo State,” said Okpebholo. “Our administration will work tirelessly to fulfill our promises, from improved infrastructure to economic development and security.”
