Secretary to the Edo State Government, Osarodion Ogie Esq., has officially assumed office following his swearing in on Wednesday by the Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki at the Government House, Benin.
Obaseki who urged Ogie to remain undaunted and focused in the discharge of his duties, reiterated that the pressures of the job would continue in, “our quest to restructure our systems for efficient service delivery to Edo people.
“We started this journey together. Ogie is part of the whole process. The advice I have is for you to brace up to face more pressure than ever before.
“This is because one of the most difficult things in life is to change an aged system or to try to get an old person to change their ways. What we are attempting to do in the next four years will not be easy and we need all the support we can get to make Edo great again.”
