The Edo State Governor, Mr. Philip Shaibu, has officially resumed at his new office outside the state Government House in Benin-city. The relocation to the new office has been directed by the Permanent Secretary, Office of the Head of Service, and civil servants have already started moving in.
The Edo State Governor, Mr. Philip Shaibu, yesterday officially resumed at his new office outside the state Government House in Benin-city. This move comes after a memo was issued by the Permanent Secretary, Office of the Head of Service (HoS), directing the relocation to the new office.
The new office is situated at No 7 Dennis Osadebey Avenue close to the emergency gate of the Government House. Journalists were denied entry by the security man at the gate as they did not possess a government house identification card. However, civil servants were seen moving into the new office while some workers were still cleaning the compound.
Plain cloth security aides to the deputy governor were also sighted driving into the facility and later leaving. The deputy governor had previously instituted a suit against the state governor and other officials over a move to impeach him, but last week, he withdrew the suit.
"We have been told to move and we have started moving today (yesterday). The memo was sent directly to the permanent secretary; it was a two-paragraph memo from the HoS but the civil servants are the ones moving right now. The letter was sent to the permanent secretary so we are waiting for directives. The civil servants are moving today (yesterday) but we may move before the end of the week," an aide to Shaibu confirmed.
The deputy governor's decision to withdraw the suit was in response to the intervention of several individuals, including religious and prominent Edo people as well as the traditional institution. He expressed gratitude to the governor for agreeing on the peace initiatives.
The governor and the deputy governor have been engaged in resolving their differences and focusing on the peace and unity of Edo State. The withdrawal of the suit is seen as a positive step towards achieving that goal.
This relocation signals a change of environment for the governor. Moving to a new office can provide a fresh start and a different perspective. It also allows the governor to establish a presence outside the Government House and connect with a broader section of the population.
While some may view this move as a strategic decision, it is important to recognize that the focus should be on the governor's commitment to serving the people of Edo State and working towards their welfare and development.
As the governor settles into his new office, there will likely be adjustments and adaptations to this new working environment. It will be interesting to see how the governor navigates this transition and continues to fulfill his duties effectively.
Overall, the relocation of the Edo State Governor, Mr. Philip Shaibu, to a new office outside the Government House is a significant development. It represents a change in the dynamics of governance and presents new opportunities for engagement and collaboration.
As Edo State moves forward, it is essential that all stakeholders, including the governor and his team, work together towards the common goal of progress and prosperity for the people. This new office could serve as a catalyst for positive change and innovation in governance.
The people of Edo State will be keenly watching the developments in the coming weeks and months, hoping for improved governance and a better future for their state.
Change comes with challenges, but it is through embracing these challenges and finding solutions that growth and progress are achieved. The governor's decision to relocate to a new office demonstrates a willingness to adapt and a commitment to effective leadership.
As the governor settles into his new office, he can look forward to new opportunities, fresh perspectives, and renewed energy. The people of Edo State have placed their trust in him and it is now up to him to deliver on their expectations.
