- He stated that his administration did not allow itself to be fazed by distraction as it only focused on what is important from the get go
Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has said he is not afraid of his administration being probed when his tenure elapses.
He disclosed that he will cooperate with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, if the agency wants to probe his eight years of stewardship in the state.
Obaseki made the disclosure Wednesday during the EdoBEST National Results-Sharing Session in Abuja, where he highlighted his administration’s achievements.
He stated that his administration did not allow itself to be fazed by distraction as it only focused on what is important from the get go.
“I’m not afraid of the EFCC. Why should I be? What is important is focus. I came into office and ignored the noise, concentrating on what I felt was important, and today you can see the results,” Obaseki said.
“If the EFCC calls on me, I will hand myself over; I have nothing to hide.”
The outgoing governor also expressed his belief that the vindictiveness and bitterness in the political landscape are secondary to addressing the real challenges faced by the country
