So many Small Arms & Light Weapons (SALW) in the hands of hoodlums in #Lagos, #Edo & #Rivers States; a serious threat to internal security of the aforementioned states. There’s urgent need for citizens to help security agencies with credible intelligence to recover those weapons.
Insecurity alert level will increase in #Lagos, #Edo, #Rivers, #Ondo & #Delta States by December unless security agencies step up surveillance & intel to recover looted arms & ammo in d hands of hoodlums. Security agencies + military can curtail it via credible intel from locals

Also, I want to reiterate that the ban on street trading, which was announced by the Deputy Governor, Rt. Hon. Comrade Philip Shaibu, is in the best interest of our people.

1/40.
My dear good people of #EdoState, I am pleased to speak to you once again, and to intimate you on actions and steps which have been taken to tackle the spread of #COVID19 pandemic in the state.
2/40.
After I established the State #COVID19 Response Team, we commissioned an epidemiological study in conjunction with #UBTH to predict and guide the course of action required to control the spread of the #COVID19 in Edo.
3/40.
The model predicted that after the Edo first confirmed case on the 23rd, we will see 8 cases within the first 3 weeks, and a growth that could peak to about 500,000 cases in the last week of June except we take some actions.

When I hosted members of the Benin Unity League, I declared my interest to run for a second term in office because I have fulfilled most of my promises to Edo people.

This will also enable me consolidate my administration’s developmental strides in #EdoState .

I have said it clearly and I told my cabinet members that second term for me is non-negotiable. I am demanding it because I deserve it and I think I have earned it. We need to have it so we can continue what we are doing today.
