Edo State Governor-elect, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, says he is "governor of all Edo people and not a section of the political spectrum."
He said that his government will reach out to opposition members who are well known to him, but maintain that he would not accept anyone on the opposition as a Commissioner in his cabinet. He stated this in an interview with New Telegraph.
His Words, "I am aware and cognizant of the fact that as governor, I am governor of all Edo people and not a section of the political spectrum. Therefore, I am going to reach out and fortunately many of the people on the other side are people who are known to us.
"Some of them are family members, so we will continue to reach out to them in terms of explaining what our policies are and what we want to do for our people. But clearly, even as a government of unity, we are not going to accept anyone on the opposition as a commissioner in my cabinet. We will reach out to them in other areas for cooperation.
