Just 24 hours after being sworn in as Governor of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo has dismissed all permanent secretaries appointed from outside the state’s public service, as well as other political appointees.
Governor Okpebholo also ordered the immediate dissolution of the executive teams of all boards, agencies, and parastatals within the Edo State Public Service.
This directive was issued in a statement signed by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Fred Itua. Okpebholo instructed affected appointees to hand over all government property to the highest-ranking public officers in their respective ministries, departments, and agencies.
Senator Okpebholo was inaugurated on Tuesday, following his victory in the September 21 governorship election. Representing the All Progressives Congress, he defeated Peoples Democratic Party candidate Asue Ighodalo and Labour Party candidate Barr. Olumide Akpata.
