The approval by the Edo State House of Assembly of the Governor Monday Okpebholo’s request for a credit line of N100B is a most strategic policy decision of his administration to guarantee unhindered funding of capital projects in the state.
It is the best way to ensure that huge capital projects do not suffer funding gaps.
Governor Monday Okpebholo is strategic and forward looking in his development agenda.
Naysayers and opposition whose opportunity to serve the state on the past may twist it and misinterprete same to be a loan met for some person’s pocket, behold they got it wrong.
Given the huge infrastructure deficit in Edo State and the determination of Governor Monday Okpebholo to leave no stone unturned in making sure that Edo people gets value for money and a complete turnaround in the state of infrastructure in Edo State this credit line is tied to projects not what anyone can access for any other purpose.
The Edo State Government is meeting all legal requirements for this credit line just for the purpose of infrastructural revolution in Edo.
Governor Monday Okpebholo’s administration is on the right track in delivering practical governance to Edo people.
