The Edo State Government said it would be marking the first year anniversary of the State Governor Monday Okpebholo with the inauguration of a litany of projects across the State.
Kassim Afegbua, the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, stated this on Monday at a press briefing as part of activities lined up for the anniversary.
Afegbua said the projects to be inaugurated cut across roads, schools, healthcare, agriculture, among others, in the three Senatorial Districts of the State.
He said the inauguration of the projects would commence between November 7 and November 11, 2025.
The commissioner who described the Monday Okpebholo-led Government as practical governance, added that dignitaries from within and outside the State are invited to grace the occasion.
“We are happy that across the entire state, we have about 60 to 63 schools receiving attention as part of the first phase intervention. More than half of that has been completed, part of which we will be commissioning.
“We also have a lot of primary health care centres, about 60 of them, that we have recovered. We have also put them to good use.
“Besides commissioning of projects, we will be having a colloquium on Wednesday to interrogate issues and perspectives of what we have encountered thus far in the course of this administration.
“We are bringing in Speakers, some from outside the state and within the state, to speak to us, to interrogate us and set the right tone for commencing the second year journey.
“Governors will be there, there are quite a number of other Ministers, and other dignitaries from across the country. They will grace the occasion. It will also allow us to reconstruct and recollect all our interventions in charting a new course in the process of rebuilding a new Edo”, he said.
